Did you see http://ovmj.org/GNUnet/papers/mixminion.ps ?

Considering the high latency, asynchronous operation and additional 
complications involved in setting up proper bi-directional communication of 
mixminion (once-reply blocks) I kind of doubt that anyone has ever done 
peer-to-peer file-sharing (or any other kind of P2P) on top of mixminion.
