Your download history is stored in a file named (appropriately enough) 
download_history, which can be found in:


Windows 7:  C:\Users\username\.get_iplayer

Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\.get_iplayer

Immediately after you install get_iplayer on the second machine, copy 
the download_history file from the old machine to the equivalent 
location on the new machine.  When you run get_iplayer on the new 
machine, it should use the download history you copied over and prevent 
re-downloading or any programmes.

Simon's reply made me realise I probably answered the wrong question. 
If you just want to transfer your get_iplayer installation to another 
machine (my earlier assumption), use the above instructions. If you 
actually want to keep 2 machines in sync, Simon's suggestion to use 
Dropbox (or similar) is the way to go.  Make sure syncing is complete 
before running get_iplayer (to avoid overwriting the download history 
and programme cache files).

I imagine there isn't and won't be for a while. Apple's policies on what 
apps can do and what they can access is remarkably restrictive. AIUI 
they only permit Objective-C - no scripting in languages Perl - and not 
only that, to easily achieve what get_iplayer does would require 
additional installation of static dependencies which Apple is always 
against. (Never mind the device probably needing to also be rooted!)
