It all boils down to this: when I look down a list of mirror sites, is

There's no automated tool.  You'll need to use traceroute
to the various mirrors and hope ISPs have used reasonable
names on their router interfaces.

There's a lot of thought being given just how to bleed
topological detail out of BGP to applications so that
they can answer this sort of question. But there's no
result yet :-(
