You have a couple of ways to go.  You can install mod_bandwidth
and try to get it to work (I've been unable to make it work under
Apache 1.3, while it used to work fine under Apache 1.2) or install
one of the general-purpose bandwidth limiting packages available.  
The available bandwidth limit packages include ALTQ and dummynet.
My personal preference is for dummynet, which I plan to install on
my web servers shortly.  If you run 2.2.8, dummynet is a standard 
part of your installation and just needs to be enabled through
your ipfw config files.
