I have a need for this as well.  Up to now, I've just been using
multiple instances of a generic FLV flash player (I've been using the
JWPlayer), but this won't cut it for high volume load testing.

I didn't think it would be too hard to write a dumb client using the
red5 libraries, but I have not done it yet.  I will give it a go today
and let you know how it worked out.

(Actually, as I write this, it looks like Peter Thomas just sent an
example using another rtmp library, so maybe my tinkering is not
necessary)

Yep!  I did this tinkering a while back, so this may help you in case you decide to go that route:

But I do think using Flazr would be much simpler.
