AGI is perfect for this. Create a list of destinations and relate your
variables to it. Your free to use your favorite database and your
favorite script/language to replace those 80000 with 1.

There is a drawback ofcourse, there is atleast one more program to fail
at calling time.

You may be in a position where you can do the magic later based on cdrs,
that way there is only asterisk to fail during the call.
