I think this may be what you're looking for:

It won an Apple Design Award. I was pretty impressed with it.

If you're comfortable with Fink, Pan is also a very capable leeching program.

Yep, Unison (linked above) is pretty much the only worthwhile option at this point. To its credit, it's also a very well-designed program, and uses a creative interface to make finding stuff easy.

I'd be using it, except I'm a diehard Thoth user; Thoth is a spectacular binary-focused newsreader, but sadly the developer discontinued it completely, so there's no way to get a working copy now.
