That's just one of it's uses. Take a look at

  http://www.countersiege.com/doc/pfsync-carp/

and scroll down to the example about load balancing, then see carp(4)
and search for arpbalance.

You can automate the simpler (?) rdr balancing using a script that
checks outage and removes/adds addresses to tables, if you prefer that,
see

for an example.
