How many client machines are you trying to distribute in this way?  Your 
example suggests you're only testing with one, which is going to be 
unrepresentative if your goal is to do it for 10, 100 or more.

Are you happy if requests to different websites come from different source 
addresses, or do you require that multiple requests to the same site from the 
same client get different source IPs (as outlined in your example)?

Finally, have you looked at network routing solutions (eg: IProute2) to this 
problem, rather than an application layer proxy?
