Storing data in memcache can be done from almost any language available. You 
need to run a memcached server [1] somewhere and connect to it from some 
program. Then you can simply set key/value pairs.

A PHP example:
$m = new Memcache('host');
$m->set('key', 'value');

If you set all your user/IP pairs in the cache, you can then retrieve them in 
your Nginx config. Make sure you have the memc module compiled in. It would 
also be a good idea to compile the eval module; with it, you can store the 
value in a variable.

Then, using that value (the IP address), you can select your backend.
