I guess I'm looking in the wrong place, but can I put a low hit webserver on my roadrunner home account, or is that against the TOS?

you're breaking the TOS

They won't care.

they'll get pissed if you point a domain to your road runner. don't do that. otherwise, you're fine if it's low hit.

by "pissed" you mean they'll
1. ask me to take it down
2. hit me with a fine
3. sue me
4. terminate my service
...

I don't expect it to get a lot of hits but if it does say a year from now I'll plan on moving the site to another place.

Your big problem will be a low upload - 384 k/sec is pretty awful for a webserver ...

I don't think they would care unless you saturate it constantly.

On another note, it would be a problem if your website had copyrighted materials or content that would raise some legal questions. The first party a legal team usually contacts is the ISP/host and asks that the service be terminated. I had a friend with a rare (old) book scanned in PDF on a site and he got terminated that way. The book was old but not old enough to get outside of the copyright law statue of limitations
