Steven,
EZProxy has some very good tools for controlling access, limiting how
many connections each user can make, and how much data they can download
in a given period, etc.
You can start with the UsageLimit command:

see also

and

Hi all,
Recently I've had to deal with some users using robots to harvest content
from our online subscriptions, and I am looking for ways to automatically
stop users before our access gets temporarily revoked (bad for everyone).
Currently, were are using EZProxy (with CAS authentication). Would anyone
be willing to share their setup or give me some insight here?
Thanks,
Steven
