A plugin like this one seems a good approach too:
http://drupal.org/project/misery

Misery is a module designed to make life difficult for certain users.
Currently you can force users to endure the following misery:
Delay: Create a random-length delay, giving the appearance of a slow
connection. (by default this happens 40% of the time)
White screen: Present the user with a white-screen. (by default this
happens 10% of the time)
Wrong page: Redirect to a random URL in a predefined list. (by default
this happens 0% of the time)
Random node: Redirect to a random node accessible by the user. (by
default this happens 10% of the time)
403 Access Denied: Present the user with an "Access Denied" error. (by
default this happens 10% of the time)
404 Not Found: Present the user with a "Not Found" error. (by default
this happens 10% of the time)
Forms don't submit: Redirect back to the form during validation to
prevent submission. (by default this happens 60% of the time)

There are hooks for developers to unleash and contrive more misery.
