You might consider mod_security (/usr/ports/www/mod_security) which can be set up to ban hosts based on behaviour or characteristics.
Or fail2ban (/usr/ports/security/py-fail2ban) is really great, too, in that it scans whatever logs you want, and can trigger a block in your firewall if enough violating log entries are found within a particular period of time. Everything is totally configurable, and there are plenty of examples that come with it.
