This is just far too complicated.

Just copy the cache files (in /var/spool/wwwoffle/http and ftp) from
machine A to the same location on machine B. You can just use tar to
create a copy of the cache from machine A, copy the tar file to
machine B and extract the files. There might be some duplicate files
that are on A and B, but that is a problem with whatever method you
use.
