The most obvious and simple solution is to not use Windows. Whilst
lots of open source software does work on Windows (to some extent),
almost all of it is not developed, designed or targeted for Windows.
Using Windows will make your life harder, not easier (I've never had
to track down specific binary versions of a python package, for
instance).

The next most simple solution is to not use mod_wsgi, use
mod_proxy_http to proxy to a standalone http server that runs django
in its own wsgi container. Again, your problem here is finding one
that runs well on Windows. uWSGI apparently supports it via Cygwin...
