Since the process to find this out is probably more useful than the actual information, it's worth describing it: I opened their website and connected to a game server while watching tcpdump output. Destination port number stayed the same for a couple of connections and between a couple of servers so I googled 'runescape 43594' and found the information for the other ports.
