[ale] Apache load balancing?

Actually, that's not going to help.  My two services are different
providers, different IPs, different networks, etc.  So, the smarts would
have to be in Apache so that it would modify outgoing HTML and imbed an
appropriate IP for the line with the next-lowest traffic.

However, I think some sites do that via DNS resolution of the "www.."
address.  It might still be possible to get Apache to do that, though, via
redirection.

Anyone?
