round-robin won't really do it - every x person will get the "down" www record. there are some dynamic dns solutions out there that will help you with this. we looked at F5 3DNS, but it's quite $. There are some new players in the space that have cheaper solutions. Also, If you need the existing traffic "re-routed" to the mirror site then you'll need to have your public ip blocks injected into each other providers BGP tables (or host your own). Talk with your isps on this.
