It could be done with NAT and sticky routes: each time a new IP is
accessed the outbound route flips between its own link and the partner
link, and each time that route sticks for a period. Over time (given
enough connections) this will average out to roughly equal shares. I did
something similar years ago - minus the NAT and with real IPs - when I had
two modem connections to Telstra.

At a higher level you could use Squid and round-robin between your own
cache and your partner's sibling.

Cheers.
