can anyone tell me how to read the headers of the RPMs in Cooker & Contrib
without having to download the RPMs themselves & read them locally?
otherwise, how can you tell what the various programs are useful for?

Not sure how to read these on none local database.

if i do have a local RPM, but it's not in the URPMI database,
is there any way to read its header ( 'urpmq --header' doesn't help)?

On local rpms try this: rpm -qp --info <package name>
