While you may not be able to multi-class over into Scout or something, you might be able to work out a Feat option with your DM that gives limited Skirmish die-like abilities.
One that would be particularly suitable would be an 'Aimed Shot' Feat that allows you to sacrifice iterative attacks with archery to add dice to the single shot taken as a Full-Round Action. A 12th level Ranger would normally have 3 arrows per round at +12/+7/+2, but with this Feat he could fire a single arrow at +12 that does two extra dice. He'd only get all of his plusses to damage twice, and the Feats prereqs would be something like BAB+6 and Precise Shot. [An identical Feat for melee fighters would also make sense. Focused Strike would have BAB+6 and Power Attack as prereqs, and allow a Fighter to do the same thing, making single big sword hits instead of rolling a bunch of iterative attacks.]
