A quick search on google for DSL speed test provides some options.  Site
DSLreports.com has a variety of tools available including a Java-based 
speed test http://www.dslreports.com/stest for your perusal.  As always 
with speed tests, your mileage WILL vary.

In the FWIW department, the Telocity/DirectTV DSL gateway boxes keep such 
stats locally for you.
