I just downloaded the manifest-5.1.zip 20 times in a shell loop with
no problems (less than a second each time). luarocks itself keeps a
cache in between executions with a timestamp, and tries to get
last-modified via HEAD from the server before trying to GET the
manifest.

Are you sure it's not something in your end?
