Not a really good idea, except if you really know what you are doing. Hunting down repositories is a better idea, especially as there are some trusted ones.
There is a good/safe way of using http://rpm.pbone.net/ . Click "Advanced RPM Search" followed by "Uncheck All". Then pick up CentOS and RedHat EL 5 (or 4). This is a fairly easy method to find out what is available. Note that it will not find stuff from kbs-extras, for example. I also check Fedora 6 so I can rebuild from their srpm in case a package is only available from FC6.
