pixel tracking in an iframe

I have a php front-end supporting a pretty well-trafficked website. I have many (8-10) customers that have asked me to add tracking pixels to my pages as a way for them to count advertising impressions.

my site uses javascript and does tracking on its own (as the last item on the page).

I have noticed that some of these third-party tracking pixels often have problems with connection times and load times and when their javascript doesn't load or takes many seconds to do so, the rest of my page fails to load in a timely manner also.

I was thinking about putting all 8 of the tracking pixels in an iframe and was wondering if anyone had done something similar or knew of any positive or down sides to doing something like this.

thanks
 
is this a php question?

why not just put all the tracking pixels and related js code in a cData section at the bottom of the page?
