If you want a pure peer-to-peer solution, I recommend using a Distributed 
Hash Table (DHT). You may want to look in to Kademlia algorithm and the 
several available implementations and networks.

If you want a more p2p complete solution you may want to take a look at 
rTorrent/libTorrent (http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/) or aMule 
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/amule/) and adapt to your particular needs.
