That is a solution that will work, but one that tracks
connections and loads on the machines will work
better. You are onto something though. Most
large-scale enterprise sites do something called
global load balancing using DNS, based upon your
reverse entry, they point you to the nearest of their
multiple redundant sites to keep traffic from
travelling further than it has to.
