Thales,
Another thing to consider is writing a separate script that lives on your origin web servers that is a wrapper for a number of tests performed on the application. I've done this in the past so that the BIG-IP health monitor can be as simple as possible while leaving the logic in a script on the webservers. You can also build some caching into the test script as well to prevent overloading your backend with excessive requests from health monitors.
