this is a horrible way of doing it. When a user connects to a web page he connects to the server first through an IP and a port (thats all a url is, a masked IP address on port 80, 443 or 8080). A trust system would work if you're trying to stop forum post bombs but not DoS or DDoS attacks and even then it would be inefficient.
Oh god this is old... But I think you misunderstand the DoS method I'm trying to protect against. While it's certainly possible to DoS by having an upload bandwidth larger than your target's download, that's not the purpose of this method. This would protect against attacks that attempted to hit limits on server resources. (think slowloris, or some chernobyl packet)
