There's also http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/trafficserver/plugins/trunk/balancer/

Someone would need to take that code& run with it since it's a little
bit raw right now. I dont think it does any health checking, etc but
just rotates requests among the set of hosts described in the config.
Yeah, it's a bit worse than that :). The way this plugin worked at Yahoo
was in combination with an out-of-bandwidth health checker and balancer.
So, as it is, it's probably fairly useful. I know the Taobao team has
changes to make active health checks in ATS, I'm just not sure how that
will integrate with 'remapping' rules. There's something missing here,
and we need to figure that out :).
