ViBe is a pixel-based technique that extracts the background in video sequences. It is probably one of the fastest tool available and outperforms many known techniques.
ViBe is provided as a software capable to deal with any format accepted by ffmpeg. You can also link the object code to your own C/C++ code (for Linux, 32 bits).

This paper contains a very detailed pseudo-code description of the complete algorithm.
