You can get the MD5 sums for the current packages by checking
Packages.gz for the appropriate distribution. This is relatively
reliable for Woody and Potato, but Sid changes so often that it's only
really useful immediately after you update. Just connect to one of the
debian mirrors and go to

/debian/dists/<distrib>/main/<architecture>/Packages.gz

for example:

/debian/dists/sid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz

or

/debian/dists/testing/main/binary-sparc/Packages.gz
