Steve,
Look at Caddock type MG, TG, MX etc. resistors
http://www.caddock.com/Online_catalog/high_voltage/high_voltage.html
I have used them many times. I picked up a bunch of MX440 5.6meg parts
which are good for 11kV and 3.5W. I use 2 in series and they work great
up through 15kV which is the maximum I can HIPOT.
