John,

It sounds like you want to use the Open GIS Web Map Server interface for 
MapServer. You can then build requests like 
http://myhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=<path-to-my-map>&bbox=<log-lats>&width=500&height=500&layers=alayer,blayer 


See: http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc36/wms-server-howto.html

Hope this helps,

Andrew
