This is one possibility: Cocoa HTTP Server. From the project's page:

So with Apple's framework for an HTTP server tucked under our arm we set out to make our own. We wanted the following:

  • Built in support for bonjour broadcasting
  • IPv4 and IPv6 support
  • Asynchronous networking using standard Cocoa sockets/streams
  • Digest access authentication
  • TLS encryption support
  • Extremely FAST and memory efficient
  • Heavily commented code
  • Very easily extensible

You can link this library from your app and effectively make it a mini-web server.
