Looking at some of the RSS reader extensions, there seem to be ways to disable the cache for specific pages containing extensions. For example, see:

Haven't tried this myself.
Depending on how loaded the servers are expected to be and how often the status is going to be updated, disabling the cache entirely for those pages might be a bad move. If the status changes frequently, and the site isn't expected to be too busy, then it's worth considering.
