Metalinks are XML files for describing downloads. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metalink or http://www.metalinker.org/

Here's an example .metalink file. I've also attached one.

 <metalink version="3.0" xmlns="http://metalinker.org">
   <files>
     <file name="example.ext">
     <verification>
       <hash type="md5">example-md5-hash</hash>
       <hash type="sha1">example-sha1-hash</hash>
       <signature type="pgp"/>
     </verification>
     <resources>
       <url type="ftp" location="us"
preference="90">ftp://ftp.example.com/example.ext</url>
       <url type="ftp" location="uk"
preference="90">ftp://ftp.example.net/example.ext</url>
       <url type="http" location="us"
preference="90">http://example.com/example.ext</url> 
       <url type="http" location="de"
preference="90">http://example.net/example.ext</url>
       <url type="bittorrent"
preference="100">http://example.org/example.ext.torrent</url>
       <url type="rsync"/>
       <url type="magnet"/>
       <url type="ed2k"/>
     </resources>
     </file>
   </files>
 </metalink>
