Is there a way to do this? Like:

use=web
web=http://freemyip.com/checkip, http://whatismyip.akamai.com/,http://ipecho.net/plain

So it cycles through them, in case one is down (also, so they don't get overloaded)

Currently no, not possible.
However adding more intelligent IP acquisition (fallbacks, round-robin querying, sanity checking etc.) is something I want to improve, I just haven't found any time.

I wrote a bit about wanting to decouple IP acquisition as part of the general goal of making ddclient more modular & maintainable in #584
Thia kind of improvement would probably fit into this as well - have simple IP acquisition scripts that ddclient then combines for redundancy, load balancing etc.
