DNS wildcards with mod_vhost_alias

Hi, is it possible to configure mod_vhost_alias to translate:
- www.somedomain.net => /home/somedomain.net/www
- subdomain.somedomain.net => /home/somedomain.net/somedomain
- somedemain.net => /home/somedomain.net/www
?
I get to:

VirtualDocumentRoot /home/%-2.0.%-1/%-3+

but if no third part from last is present, Apache replaces it with
underscope. I need to tell Apache to replace it with "www". Or should i use
mod_rewrite instead?

Thanks for an advice

How about at
/home/somedomain.net
run
ln -s www _
and make the _ a symbolic link to www

Do have your scripts eat and bake cookies for .somedomain.net

IIRC this way of setting documentroot is not correctly replicate to the
corresponding enviroment parameter.

Thanks for tip, but i have to do that without symlink.
