Keeping the website up and running despite the attacks and hosting problems is important for Wikileaks. It is a way to show their power. I am not a fan of Wikileaks, but I've thought of some ways to keep controversial websites up and running in last couple of days. One of my idea is based on smartphones. There there millions of smartphones in the world. One could create a Java/Symbian/Android based web-server package and deploy that to the fans of Wikileaks around the world. Then these smartphones deployed around the world would create a web-cluster of say, hundreds of thousands of servers at least. You would also need a DNS server returning IP addresses pointing to these mobiles in a round-robin/similar algorithm. Of course for this setup to work, the Smartphones would need a public IP (and the mobile operator to allow access to the mobile's IP). Of course there could be some quality related problems, but I don't see a reason why this wouldn't work - if above requirements/assumptions would be passed.
