Oh - I don't think that will work.  I don't know of anyone doing such a thing.  
I suggest you set up a tree configuration (although a circuit here or there 
wouldn't break things as the LDM does do duplicate detection).  I think that 
will work much better than having all sites feed from a single server, and it's 
really not overly difficult to manage - we do it here all the time! :)  If each 
site fed only 5 sites you'd only need a tree that's three levels deep.  Plus, 
sites could failover if they lost their primary feed.  Just a thought...
