Anything wrong with 'sudo'? Works great. Here's an example setup just for Apache.
In /etc/sudoers:
%webadmin ALL=(webadmin) ALL
%webadmin ALL=(root) /usr/bin/su [-] webadmin
%webadmin ALL=(root) /sbin/service httpd restart
%webadmin ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /sbin/service httpd reload
This is on a RedHat system. The first two are just housekeeping to let them use sudo to do anything they normally could anyway. Adjust if your user is not named "webadmin". :=)
