there is function defunct_gw(period) that you can use to defunct a full
gateway for some period of time.

for what you propose, you would need to use dialog module to keep track
of dialogs to each gateway and that way manage your counters.  then
after calling next_gw(), you could check if its counter allows you to
actually use it.

i'm not myself a believer of dialogs in sip proxy.
