I think small daemons can be written in any language if performance isn't a huge concern. I write little Ruby daemons all the time, to perform monitoring tasks etc. when I can be decently sure my program isn't leaking memory or anything like that.
I'll either run them as periodically-executed Cron scripts, or just make them infinite-looping programs. Both approaches have worked fine for me.
