To keep some randomness, it may be desired for worker IPs to rotate out of a pool of some sort. This way, checks aren't as predictable.

mod_iprotate

will only work for linux. make it toggle-able. check OS
allow admin to select ip pool range to choose from (hi, lo)
ask server "what IP from the pool can I use?", server sends unused address, marks as used
server frees up IP when the check returns a result
if no ip's available in pool, server will tell client to use it's own IP
use linux virtual interfaces
