I haven't used Unity yet (though I still plan to try it out) but if
you have a copy of Firefox (<= v3.5) then the Plain Old Webserver
plugin[1] might do what you want.  If you don't mind a little perl, I
also have a small webserver[2] that might also work.  (I use this to
serve files from my Android phone.)

Cheers,
