You could write a little robot that loads URLs as they appear in the Squid
access log file and follow the links from that page. If the robot uses
Squid as a proxy, you would only pull new stuff from the Internet. Of
course you need to make sure that the robot does not use its own trace in
the Squid access log file - you would get a pretty busy proxy :-). If you
use Squid's native log format with mime type information, your robot only
needs to inspect text/html objects.

I suspect that this idea could get you in trouble if your load is high ...
would be interesting to find out, though.
