remote md5sums

[Jude DaShiell]

Has Linux anywhere got a tool that will take as input an url point at a 
file name and return the md5sum of that remote file?  If such a tool does 
exist, it would be possible to pre-emptively check remote files with 
missing md5sums and store those sums on a local machine so once the file 
is downloaded file integrity can then be checked with the local version of 
md5sum.
