As Malte said, you also need to look at the Listen directive. If you have:

Listen 80

it will bind to port 80 everywhere. If you want to bind to just a specific address, use the following format:

Listen: 203.63.9.10:80

See the apache docs - they are actually very nice to use. eg: http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mpm_common.html#listen

further to the above, note that VirtualHost directives only tell apache what to do with the addresses/ports it is listening on, they do not affect what addresses/ports apache will bind to.
