I am writing a HOWTO on this subject now, and will (perhaps) be speaking on the topic at DefCon. Long story short:
a) collocate your own server (not just a webhost) somewhere.

d) set up an automated script on the server that _constantly_ fetches random web pages, thus creating a constant stream of http traffic in and out of the server, again diminishing traffic patterns. Log the actual proxy requests in some temporary fashion and randomly hit those web sites in an automated fashion throughout the day, regardless of whether someone is requesting them through the proxy or not...and then, script a constant stream of requests to the proxy as well
Comments appreciated.
Fun & difficult part is setting up fetching of "random" web pages that looks like real user activity. Also, unless you have some very odd friends, user activity will vary in statistically likely ways over time, so the ideal system would "randomly" compensate for that.
