Try the following command:
 GET 
http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=rawhide\&arch=$(uname 
-i)|grep -v ^#|head -n 1


Since mirrors are rotated in that list - run it twice.
The URL you'll get is right unless you
  - are using yum-fastestmirror plugin
 - set failovermethod=roundrobin option for that repo
