How about something like this?
http://cleo.uwindsor.ca/cgi-bin/gentoo-eggs/

It is just a proof of concept, please don't point the gentoo universe at this link. :-)

It fetches the "tree" of metadata from the Chicken site, generates a list of links, and proxies the download of eggs so that the filenames contain the necessary timestamp.

Will this work?
