Any chance the Rocketfuel project had a chance to map out UUNET/Worldcom
since the first run?

not yet. but we intend to get to it soon; a lot of people have asked the 
same question.

last year we *measured* isp maps as part of a research project 
called> rocketfuel and found that the marketing maps can differ 
significantly from
the real ones quite a bit because of lack-of-detail, outdated-
ness, or
optimistic-projections. a paper describing the methodology and 
the maps
themselves can be found off:  
http://www.cs.washington.edu/research/networking/rocketfuel/

and, aside from reversing the meaning of a comment you attribute
to me, i heartily recommend this paper.
