Actually the distribution problem is pretty simple.
In your forwarding table add a per-prefix cost.
The cost is expressed in terms of tokens.
The tokens are deducted from a token bucket.
The number of tokens in the bucket (depth and refresh-rate) is
arrived at by some engineering or sales process.
This polices MEDs nicely.
