Couldn't you just do that with some kinda cgi scripty thing.  As in, the
directory of the site is displayed using a cgi script which just goes
through and pieces all these things together into a nice structured file
thing?... Its just that would save you from having to bother running a
bot every now and then.  Now, as to writing the cgi thing, urmm... Any
volunteers :).... 

I suppose I could put a bit of time into creating the initial index, but
I'm off on my hols (Florida.. woohoo) in a while, and then going on one
of those year-out studenty things.  So it'd have to be pretty soon!! 
Nice idea though.
