Ok a few things to check (sorry if i'm going for the basics but they need 
ruling out)
1) are you running ipf/ipfw/pf and if so have you allowed port 80
2) does "telnet localhost 80" then a "get /" give you an error message or 
just connection refused ?
3) not sure if apache uses tcp wrappers but possibly check your 
/etc/hosts.allow
