There's a windows version of lighttpd available. That might well do the
trick.

I'd still run ANY database on linux / unix before windows, just cause I
don't trust windows when things go wrong to work right. But there's
certainly nothing stopping you from running a linux or BSD based
postgresql server behind a windows lighttpd.

If the db and web server HAVE to both be on the same server, and you
have to have windows, then you might want to look at firebird, which
apparently has quite good windows performance, and, unlike MySQL has
good SQL compliance and behaviour.
