I just added a patch to  repoquery to allow it to handle arbitrary url
as repos. So you can:

repoquery --repofrompath=http://some/repo/I/want/toquery
--repofrompath=/some/local/path/also --repoid=toquery --repoid=also -q
-a


and it will grab the metadata from those to repositories and query them
instead.
