I ran into the same problem this summer. I was setting up a loadbalanced
SMTP cluster - and I wanted to distribute the incomming connections
based on number of e-mails in the mail-servers queues.
We ended up making our own program to do this. Later, I made the thing a
bit more generic and released it. You might want to check it out;

lvs-kiss distributes incomming connections based on some numerical value
- as lang as you are able to quantify it - it can be used. It can also
time certain test in order to acquire the load of the realservers.
