In order to do more advanced things, such as non-equal capacity load balancing, you need to have knowledge of the "load" on a link (or the servers in the case of 4-7 load balancers). This is something that "routers" have typically avoided, and I'm not aware of any router vendors who attempt to do load balancing based on the load of a link.
cisco's EIGRP can do it, but it is disalbed by default, and not recommended.
