lwp-rget which checks if exists?

Hi,
Is there a version of lwp-rget which actually checks if you already have
a file, before fetching - not just in this session, but in the directory
you're fetching to? It doesn't seem that it would be too hard to re-write
it to do so, but I don't want to re-invent the wheel if there already is
something similar.
Ideally it would keep a list of last-mod times and check against these to
see if something has updated as well! Like a cross between lwp-mirror
and lwp-rget. (I could probably write this into it also, but I expect it
would be slightly less trivial)
Tony
