Mirmon does seem like a very good option.

I have installed and mostly configured it on my VPS. I have not yet figured out how to get a timestamp in the following format without adding a file like this one to the mirrors: http://psg.mtu.edu/pub/gnu/mirror-updated-timestamp.txt
I figure that the hash files are updated every time the mirror is, so I'd rather just use that. I think it should be possible with wget and date - I just ran out of time today.
