To do real live "best path" routing like your describing, you need your own routable AS number and block of subnets and you need all providers to send you a full BGP table over your links then you run Zebra or gated or something like that. Otherwise I don't think you have a good idea of what you want to do. Oh, I believe that you THINK you have a good idea, but I am pretty sure that you don't. :-) If you want to get something like this to work then you need to sit down and diagram it out and completely understand how the packet flows are to work and what routes are supposed to be where. If you cannot build a route table in your machine that will work using static route statements, then you certainly won't get it to work by introducing a routing daemon like routed. All routed does is automatically track changes in tables, the tables have to be legitimate to start with.
