So you need a LDAP reverse proxy which spreads a search across several 
LDAP servers.

back-meta seems promising, see man 5 slapd-meta

back-meta have many things in common with back-ldap (simpler reverse 
proxy), see also http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/532.html

Doing this with AD can be tricky but there has been some discussions 
about this here already.
