See the ListenBacklog directive. Apache does not send a nicely-formatted html error page saying "Server Too Busy". The basic reasoning is that, if there were resources free to send that page, why not send what the browser requested instead. When MaxClients is hit, apache simply doesn't accept more connections. They are kept in the ListenBacklog and the overflow is simply rejected. If you really want a "Server Too Busy" message, there are some third party modules that can do it. I haven't personally used any of them.
