It is if you're looking at the box you're serving from. If you're
looking at a remote box, you can use HEAD request; LWP should let you
do this.

Opening LWP::Simple in Shuck gives:

	head($url)

	Get document headers. Returns the following values if successful:
	($content_type, $document_length, $modified_time, $expires, $server)

	Returns an empty list if it fails.
