You need to activate the per-user directories first : see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/howto/public_html.html

Then you can you mod_rewrite to alias user1.domain.com to domain.com/~user1, like:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} (.*)\.domain\.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://domain.com/~%1/$1

To be simple. You can also make per user RewriteRule if you don't want to use a global setting and you don't have too many users.

You can use a combination of the wildcard option in apache's VirtualHost configuration section, and mod_rewrite. An article with some good details can be found here:

This would have to be done in your apache configuration httpd.conf file, however, as .htaccess does not allow for VirtualHost sections.
