We're doing this with rlm_perl's authorize(). We change the values in
%RAD_REQUEST and return RLM_MODULE_UPDATED in the handler. I would think
rlm_python would be similar.

If you need to change the list of users on the fly (is that what you mean by
"with out restarting Freeradius"?), you could put your list of users into
something like a Berkeley DB file and have the authorize handler check there
for the username to determine whether to add the realm.
