If the NTLM spec is available somewhere, chances are that LWP::Authen could
support it in the future.  After searching altavista, the closest 
I got was:

I'll take a stab at NTLM support if someone sends me the specs.

Apache can use digest auth.
http://www.apache.org/docs-1.2/mod/mod_digest.html

Something I've been wondering: what browsers use digest auth?
And how many servers are set up to ask for digest in addition
to basic auth?  (Would netcraft have the stats?)
