Thanks for the answer. That's mostly been my strategy as well. Sunxdcc has some stuff indexed that xdcc.eu is missing, it seems. Do you know of any networks/channels that are not even indexed by these sites?

In my experience, at least for digitally produced music that has a constant tempo and a 4/4 measure, the DJ software will get it perfectly right more than 95% of the time. In those few cases where it fails, it seems to me that it's most often caused by bad/weird/artsy/interesting mixing choices in the production, where e.g. the bass notes are more preminent than the kick drum, confusing the algorithm with an irregular kind of waveform. I guess manually EQ'ing the audio file itself to make the drums more prominent than the bass notes, then letting the software analyse the BPM once again, could be a solution. For non-quantized recordings with musically organic tempo changes, it's definitely a much different story...
