Due to the birthday paradox (it only takes 70 people to be over 90% and
there's a lot more than 70 people in any one time zone) and time zones
(what is peak daytime hours for your server may be 3am for others)  you'd
be restricting a LOT of IP addresses on a regular basis.  It would appear
wget --mirror isn't really a good idea.  Also one would want to grab just
the part of the documentation that is in their desired language.  wget
--mirror will grab everything!
