It started about month ago and it happens quite frequently, I'd say
there is ~30% chance I get this message when I try "emerge --sync".
What could be the reason for this, and how could I fix it?

It's not rsync it's the servers. Are you using the EU pool? I am, and I
have that problem frequently. In my opinion, the EU pool is of rather
poor quality.
