Is there a way to hide the number of connections to a server?
From whom, having what resources at his disposal? What resources are at *your* disposal?
You can encrypt and reroute *traffic*, but not make it vanish entirely. If your adversary can measure the bandwidth going to the server, and has a good idea of what the *average* traffic going through one connection is, he can trivially *estimate* the *number* of connections happening. If you need to avoid that, you need (lots of) *other* traffic going to you(?) to try and hide *amongst*.
Can an intermediate server do this? Instead of connecting directly to the final server, people connect to an intermediate server and this intermediate server sends requests to the final server!
... you mean, like what a VPN (to a central peer at the same site as the final server, and ideally many more servers) does ... ?
