I haven't looked in detail at the LOIC design, but:
a) If you're trying to send UDP packets (or anything other than
correctly
formed TCP streams), it won't work because Tor doesn't transport that.

b) If you're trying to open a bazillion TCP connections or something,
you'll likely end up DoSing the Tor network way before your target
site notices.
Or to phrase it more simply: "don't do that and also it wouldn't
do what
you want."
