I doubt it, since that's a really specialized feature. You'll most likely need to create your own.

How do I go about it? I have no clue where to start! I'm building this site using Google Sites. So, even if I did write a gadget/widget, I would have to write it the Google way to embed on my site.

Isn't Google Sites just hosting of static content with no active server-side components? That's what you'd need here - something like servlets or PHP.

It's only static content. But I can add google widgets which enable dynamic nature! I've integrated Docs on my site. News can be integrated and lots of other stuff. Most of them read from Feeds. For this feature requirement I have, I have no clue what I need to do!
Correct me if I'm wrong - Here, I might have to have a text area and a "Submit Code" button. On submitting, I need to invoke a servlet/php and parse the contents and execute it. I will then have to dump the results as a stream. Is this the approach?

That's the basic approach, but the difficulty is in the "invoke a servlet/php" - which is something I don't think is possible using Google Sites; it would somehow have to invoke your stuff that's running elsewhere. But I'm no Google Sites expert, so take that with a grain of salt.
