Hi,

I didn't really understand your use case. Do you want to balance
messages for performance? Is everything on the same computer?

To write a proxy, you can have a look at dbus-daemon-proxy:
http://alban.apinc.org/blog/2010/04/01/d-bus-debugging-how-to-use-d-feet-on-n900/
It is written in C and uses libdbus, and it is a proxy, between the
D-Bus client and dbus-daemon.
