note that if the server uses apache mod_userdir you can access a virtualhost site with the username which you can get if you get an error page on the site somehow. plenty of ways to do that. then you would just access the server with ip as stated in your post and ~user.

http://somesite.com/~user

that would give you the site if its on a virtualhost and has mod_userdir enabled, if the site is on like http://someother.com and is served from the user home dir.

I always disable that feature for security reasons obviously.
