I would need a pool/monitor pair for each site
This is correct. Separate pools containing the same pool members are critical to the vhost solution. Pool members with same IP:port in different pools will be marked up & down independently by their host-specific monitors. Contrast that to instead applying all host-specific monitors to the same pool member with an "All UP" requirement: In that case, failure of a single host-specific monitor would make the pool member unavialable for load balancing for any vhost.
