Use available.packages() to do this.

Try, for example:

options(repos = "http://cran.revolutionanalytics.com")
p <- available.packages()
head(p)

To extract the package names, get the column called "Package".

head(p[, "Package"])
           A3   ABCExtremes      ABCoptim         ABCp2        ACCLMA           ACD 
         "A3" "ABCExtremes"    "ABCoptim"       "ABCp2"      "ACCLMA"         "ACD"
