Not at an HTTP layer. You could limit the maximum state entries per host to 100, and set the state timeout to 60, but then all connections (to any file) will be limited in that way.
This kind of rule belongs either at an HTTP proxy layer (if you were to frontend your website with haproxy or ngnix) or in the application itself.

If there are more than 100 requests in a given minute, I want to hard block all further requests. I don't know client i.p addresses before hand. Also if this is possible, could I also set different rate limits if I knew the clients ipaddress/server host?
