It looks like the downloads are grouped by top level group.

So you can go to https://archive.org/download/gna-rec and see all archived groups that are in the rec hierarchy.

Right: As I said earlier, the list in this archive includes rec.humor.funny but not rec.arts.books.tolkien. (And I seem to recall that the alt.* hierarchy was a little less broadly propagated, which might possibly be related to why it wasn't included here.)

It looks like alt is missing, sadly.

There are also groups within an existing hierarchy missing. For example. rec.games.roguelike.development is there but rec.games.roguelike.nethack is missing.
