Page 7 or 8 of this guide discusses the health monitors that you can apply to your web servers that can log in, query the broker and if the expected application does not come back as being available it could be configured to shut down the web server. The broker acts as an intermediary between the other servers in the farm and the Web Interface so that would be a good check to perform.

If you do not find the exact configuration for the monitor you might check one of the other deployment guides:
