I don't know that there's any good way to get a full list for a particular
server, just for individual matches. I suppose you could petition Valve to
have the replay editor automatically add tags for server IP and/or hostname
or some other unique  token that makes it clear which server it was
recorded on.

As for me, I primarily use the match id just as a little added feature. My
server automatically records and uploads matches via SourceTV which are
then served on a web page for my users. I intend to add a link to each demo
file that will search for replays from that match on youtube using the
match ID tag. Players will also be able to add the match tag to their
videos if they make them outside of the normal replay editor (though I
doubt many will).
