What you want to take is:

$rirs = array(
               "afrinic"       =>
"ftp://ftp.ripe.net/pub/stats/afrinic/delegated-afrinic-latest";,

this is brilliant.  maybe we should form an org to do this and
distribute via bgp?  shall we have a contest for the name of the org?
my bid is cymru

Who have it already indeed for a long long time and have a proven track
record.

I noted the above for the people who want to get their own copy from the
IRRs, like what was asked above. For instance for the few who want to
build their own setups, want to integrate it in their own systems etc.

I can't see anything on their site that provides a BGP feed of prefixes allocated by RIRs, which I think is what we're talking about here.
