I built a system called caltrops that did almost exactly that. As a given session's requests grew more and more suspicious, their data would skew from reality further and further. A real user on the line would notice immediately (and the more real-looking the user interactions, the more it would reduce suspicion), but competitors scraping our data would get pretty deliciously bunk data.
