I don't know if the mod_auth_radius can do this on it's own.

Run your radius servers on a *nix platform? Put the radius servers
behind a load-balancer? ( It is udp and non-stateful as long as you
aren't doing any proxying so this would work ).
Another way, would be to point 'mod_auth_radius' at a radius server
running on 'localhost', and have the failover done by the 'localhost'
server. Freeradius does now support failover, so you could run that
on the web-server. No, it's not pretty, but it'd work.
Apache can failover to another auth method, but not to another instance
of mod_auth_radius.
You could probably take a look at the Freeradius failover code, and patch
that into mod_auth_radius. If it works, submit it back and it could be
patched in.
