You can also get a different load balancer (or set up a linux box). I believe the latest apache also has some load balancing features... Perhaps the cache settings in apache are a bit more configurable...
It looks like the latest version of apache supports sticky sessions. >From http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html stickysession - Balancer sticky session name. The value is usually set to something like JSESSIONID or PHPSESSIONID, and it depends on the backend application server that support sessions.
