"is rsync available?" is a question that is easily answered by just trying
it, e.g.:
rsync cygwin.com::
If it works, then yes, rsync is available. If it doesn't work, then, no
it isn't.
In this case, yes, it is available.

Look again. There are instructions on that page which specifically say
where to "send requests to be added to this list."
Note that the mirror has to be publicly available for it to be added
to this list. We don't add private mirrors to the list for hopefully
obvious reasons.
