I'm not aware of anything.  On a related topic though, Martin v. Loewis
implemented a simple scheme for Python's Roundup bug tracker where edits
were rejected if the time between when the userid was created and it was
used to create a page was too small (I think the threshold was four seconds
or something on that order).  That might be something you could implement
easily for Moin.
