The current pool code doesn't work that way.  Maybe it should, but it doesn't. 
 There is no way to specify how many servers you get.

There is a global variable specifying how many servers to get,  Individual 
servers via "server" count.  If you have more than one pool statement they 
both/all contribute.  If a pool server stops responding, it is discarded.  If 
you need more, it does another DNS lookup.
