How many clients do you hope to get into the stress test? Hundreds? Thousand or two? Although realistically unless you have the server running in several zones it would be impossible to hit thousands with just one PC or network connection. not even live servers can handle that much traffic.

I think live servers have a cap of 2000 per galaxy but thats between all of the sub-servers. I read somewhere that they use a couple of dozen computers per galaxy with each handling a particular area in the game. Each computer would only handle about a hundred players before showing signs of lag. I'll try to dig up details on that where I read it.
