This has been asked a few times before. In short you have a few options:

- WakeupSchedule (for specifying when NOT to run anything)
- MaxBackups (from what it seems, maybe you want to spread out the load)
- Blackouts (for specifying when not to run unless necessary)
- cron jobs (for forcing a run outside BackupPC, beware - not ideal)

Cron is the only way to accomplish exactly what you're looking for.

Regards,
Johan
