You have two options:

First, you could configure a Round Robin DNS with a fairly low TTL. This is the 
most classic, easiest solution for this sort of set ups.

The second option would be to configure a front-end server to deal with the 
redirections (Please, mind that I referred it a "redirections" instead of "load 
balancing"). That server could accept the www.elastix.org requests and redirect 
your users to their closest servers based on their IP address, for instance.  
In that way, most of the times it'd server a single request redirecting the 
user to a full feature server close to him.
