Ok,
 I missed this sentence
"TileCache supports three tile request mechanisms: WMS requests, like
this<http://labs.metacarta.com/wms-c/tilecache.py?LAYERS=basic&FORMAT=image/png&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&EXCEPTIONS=application/vnd.ogc.se_inimage&SRS=EPSG:4326&BBOX=-90,0,0,90&WIDTH=256&HEIGHT=256>,
WorldWind requests, like this
one<http://labs.metacarta.com/wms-c/tilecache.py?T=basic&L=5&X=32&Y=23>,
and TMS requests, Like this
one<http://labs.metacarta.com/wms-c/tilecache.py/1.0.0/basic/5/32/23.png>.
"

The last one goes to this link
http://labs.metacarta.com/wms-c/tilecache.py/1.0.0/basic/5/32/23.png

But there is no documentation of what these parameters should be (although
everything seems obvious except the first, is this the wms version?)

I tried doing this, but I'm running IIS, and the microsoft link thats posted
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q184320/

no longer works, so I'm not sure if my path_info is configured to receive
parameters this way. any pointers for getting this to work with IIS, and
more about this format of TMS requests would be much appreciated-
