The eval module is probably what you want here -

I would suggest storing the URLs in a memcached server rather than on 
file (or do both and check the file only if the memcached version isn't 
available).

You might also want to look at the memc module in order to do the 
setting of the memcached variable using Nginx (rather than a backend 
application).
