Really cool idea. Using this paper and the referenced one at http://arxiv.org/pdf/1009.3681.pdf%3Forigin%3Dpublication_de... I was able to make a proof-of-concept passive DHT crawler in a few hours.

Speaking of resilience, I wrote a paper [1] 3 years ago about how to rebuild torrent sites (like TPB) within a couple hours of a denial of service (legal or otherwise) using the Vuze client's DHT. There was some similar concurrent work [2] on the Mainline DHT by Aaron Grunthal. I'd be interested to find out whether anyone has applied it for that application.
