I suppose a little more clarification would help:

I need to pass information (for example, an email address) based on user 
name from a rails application to a disconnected ruby process through the 
cache. The external process has no way to know what users are being 
passed to it. I had wanted to use the user name as the key, but it seems 
that I can't find the values of current keys in the cache - at least not 
with memcache-client.

So far, about the best I've found is to set the cache as a hash:
Cache["users"] = { "user1"=>"user1 / example.com", 
"user2"=>"user2 / example.com" }

Is there any better way?
