I want to broadcast a local video file file.avi as if it were a webcam via a flash-based broadcasting system inside Google Chrome on a public website (a-la ustream).

Install and don't forget to run 

sudo chmod 666 /dev/video*

This will allow you to use avi, flv, gif, and other animation sources as a virtual webcam.

Have you thought about using Google plus live streaming to do this? It's easy to stream anything in your hangouts and with a screen recording software you can stream any video file that you may have.

Check these instructions:
