I don't know how many there are, but here are a few.

http://mail-abuse.org/rbl/
http://work-rss.mail-abuse.org/rss/
http://www.ordb.org/
http://openrbl.org/

And the big list at OpenDirectory:
http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Abuse/Spam/Blacklists/

I checked the RBL and the ORDB lists, and we're not listed. Since Dave
mentioned that the SMTP server isn't wide open, it's a moot point, I
guess.
