Steven,
EZProxy has some very good tools for controlling access, limiting how
many connections each user can make, and how much data they can download
in a given period, etc.
You can start with the UsageLimit command:
http://www.oclc.org/us/en/support/documentation/ezproxy/cfg/usagelimit/
see also
http://www.oclc.org/us/en/support/documentation/ezproxy/example/securing.htm
and

You may also want to join the EZProxy discussion list:
