What exactly would you generate this off of?

I would guess from data in a databse (SQL)?

If so, you could do a select statement to ge tthe userlist.
You would then make a 'template' that built a page from the data in a
database, where username==username (ie Fred).

But, you could be asking for something completely different. ;)
