it looks like you are trying to rsync against the rsync.darwinport.org 
site. please make sure that your installation is pointed at the 
macports.org site.

/opt/local/etc/ports/ports.conf
rsync_server           rsync.macports.org

/opt/local/etc/ports/sources.conf
(replace references to darwinports.org with macports.org)

that said, there were some issues with the rsync.macports.org server 
yesterday it seems.
