Rather than lying, why don't you put the ecommerce technology under a different section in your resume.

eg. "Technologies I'm proficient in: Python/Tornado, Java/Spring/Hibernate

Technologies I have some knowledge of: IBM Websphere"

Play it smart. There's no need to lie. If you really are good, build a case for it - in case they ask you to prove your experience. Prove to them you will sweat it out and prevail, as you have with other technologies in the past.

See, the #1 thing that I've learned in interviews is - that it's a two way conversation. Make a case and they will listen, even understand.
