Ubuntu doesn't mirror the dailies.  I'd guess under 50 people (likely 
much less) download any given daily.  It would likely require more 
bandwidth for each of the mirrors to download them, than for the people 
to all go to cdimage site and download them there.  Also, a lot of 
people use rsync.

cdimage.ubuntu.com has address 91.189.88.34
sarah at saturn:~% host us.cdimage.ubuntu.com

us.cdimage.ubuntu.com has address 91.189.88.197
us.cdimage.ubuntu.com has address 91.189.88.34
us.cdimage.ubuntu.com has address 91.189.88.39

Looks like us. is served by multiple machines, including cdimage.ubuntu.com
