I have a script for that :)

The sites say every 4 hours is OK, more is abusive. So my script tries
once, sleeps for 4 hours + some random offset, wakes up and tries again.
It stats the files, and does an http head to see if they've updated.
If they have, it downloads them, and gunzips if appropriate. If something
has been downloaded, clamd gets notified. Then it goes back to sleep
for a while.

It makes a number of silly assumptions about where you want to put
config files and logs and so forth, but it's simple enough you should be
able to correct paths to whatever you use. Patches for portability
welcome. The non-syslog log code is also, well, basically nonexistant,
since I just use syslog for it.
