Apache rate limiting options

What techniques and/or modules are available to implement robust rate limiting (requests|bytes/ip/unit time) in apache?

+5  A: 

The best

  • mod_evasive (Focused more on reducing DoS exposure)
  • mod_cband (Best featured for 'normal' bandwidth control, usual website seems down for now)

and the rest

I couldn't find anything to limit connections per day by IP address. I spent all night searching, that's a shame.
