Looks like you basically have to crawl it all. Sébastien Wains Creating a local CentOS mirror says 6.3Gb for a particular version; older google hits say slightly less.

Some sites build a top-level listing so you can know how much stuff is there just by reading the index, but there doesn't seem to be one on mirror.centos.org. You could crawl the site if you really wanted to, of course (hint: use HEAD to get just the file size, not the actual content; you can do something similar for ftp, too).
