Answer 1

As discussed in the comments, your only option is a Proxy. Everything else (Like mod_rewrite / Alias) will do a header redirect, and expose the target address to the user.

However, Apache's proxying doesn't seem to be that complicated. The most basic example is

ProxyPass /mirror/foo/ http://backend.example.com/

Note that a proxy will of course double your traffic, because every byte requested will have to be fetched from the remote machine.
