The way I would do this is have 

section1.contrived-example.com
section2.contrived-example.com
section3.contrived-example.com

with siteAccess, and then each zope would serve it according to it's IP
(though each "could" serve each site).  Then you can use whatever IP/DNS
load balancing tool your heart desires.
