How to distribute downloads between torrent clients?

There are several debian servers running deluge/rtorrent torrent clients, different ones. The settings contain a directory from which .torrent files are automatically added to the client.
What is the best way to distribute downloads between different servers?
So far, it only came to mind to synchronize the common directory where .torrents are dumped and somehow distribute them with a script to individual directories of clients from which autoload is configured.

you yourself answered your own question:
all .torrent files are dumped into a shared folder and then these files are transferred from it by a script to other servers to start downloading. The script will need to provide for the distribution of the load by the size of the downloaded files in order to give one server a .torrent file of 10GB, and another 10 .torrent files of 1GB each.
