Hmm prolly so, I believe for sure wget can do that and also 
pull files from a server based on a filelist.

Try this:
"lftp -e 'open ftp://ftpsite.com/pub/centos/5/updates && \
 mirror -c --delete x86_64 && exit' "

Where do you get all those other options because there is no Man Page
and lftp --help shows very little. Anyway that is what I use to mirror
CentOS 5 4 and 2.1 with and no problems with high CPU usage.
