I've made what I hope are a couple significant improvements in the mirror selection script. I hope this will result in more traffic getting directed to the best possible mirror.
Please let me know if you see any problems.

Use GeoIP to select the nearest mirror rather than relying on DNS country code. We should get much better matches this way. 2. Do a pre-scan of the mirror database to see if the selected country has any mirrors. If it doesn't, fall back to the US.
