Most will; Quixote does, for example
(http://www.mems-exchange.org/software/quixote/doc/session-mgmt.html).

Avoiding CGI on Windows may be a problem.  Graham Fawcett reported various
Windows portability bugs that have been fixed in Quixote 0.6b2, but as far
as I know the FastCGI module doesn't work.  You could try Apache and
mod_python, or, if you're really brave and have a compiler, try compiling 
SCGI.
