No it isn't recommended. BTW this was discussed here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1788961#p1788961
I don't know why I thought that installation guide have one mention to rankmirrors. My memory have holes... :-D
I see no reason to add it to the ISO. If you really need it, install it to the chroot and run it. But you should probably use reflector instead, since it can download new mirrors, rank them based on many criteria, etc.
IMHO, I think that is a good idea that the installation media have mirror tools since the mirror selection may be a recommended task. I did not know the existence of reflector, but it could be a good option to include in the ISO. Anyway is a very small package that can be installed after boot ISO.
