Streaming from the camera only when required?

Although I don't know much about video encoding and such I know how to stream video from the camera board with vlc by piping the output of raspivid into cvlc. … Is there a way to make video from the camera available remotely but only actually start decoding/streaming when someone is watching the stream? …
