There are a number of commercial offerings that I've come across but nothing open-source.
I realise that you could do something simiilar with JUnit / JMeter but I'm looking for something a bit more specific.
Had a quick look at this. It extends JUnit so it's pretty much the kind of test I'm already doing.I'm looking for something where I can specify the number of users, how many run at a time, what ramp-up time between users etc.i.e. something like [openSTA](http://www.opensta.org/)

A:
Load testing is a very complex activity. You'll need to be able to simulate many contexts (e.g., IP, port) and divide the load generators on many machines. While doing that you'll need to monitor the server (Application under test).
As of today, there are several very good commercial tools that needs certain level of expertise to work with. I don't think there is any serious open source load testing tool.
