How practical would it be to setup some CFL in my apartment that ran on only solar power if I could only put a solar panel or two on my balcony? Would that even be enough power to run them, and then just use the wall power when it's cloudy out or somethin?

I've got a 4W CFL by my writing desk that provides ample light. A decent sized solar panel should work just fine for that. With a decent battery bank, you can use it 24/7. If your goal is light during the day, see if your landlord will reimburse you for a skylight.
