Not a proxy

I’m using Pound as a proxy to be able to have more than 1 webserver behind my
NAT-router.
The proxy sits between the connection all the time which is what a proxy is
supposed to do.
 
But I was wondering….
It’s not really a proxy what I want. I just want an agent that will direct the
traffic to the proper webserver depending on the domain-name requested.
 
If pound would spoof the IP of the http-client, the backed would not respond to
pound, but to the http-client itself and from then on the servers would be
talking to each other.
 
I think a similar technique is used with SIP.
Anyone knows how to do such a thing?
