Hi Raphaël,

That list is generated by a script on svr2.postgresql.org - there is no easy way that the data can be extracted
remotely.Perhaps the best I can offer is a simple php script which returns a list of base URLs for the currently active
mirrors.It might be a couple of days though as I'm swamped with work at the moment. 

Regards, Dave.
