If you do an

# /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd reload

from the command line as root, you'll gracefully restart apache.  What
that means is that no one currently browsing any sites on your system
will see the difference.

To shut down a site you can either completely disable a site from the
gui, or just comment out all the virtual site stuff for that site in
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf, then do the reload (as above).  Then to
restart that site you just un-comment those lines, and do it again.

I don't know of any other easy way to do it, since apache is only
running once for all your sites.
