10 Apr 2009From my IPV4 database, here are the the Registrar and Country statistics as of April 10 2009.
Since the last update, ARIN has crossed the 1.6B IPV4 address boundary, adding nearly 5M IPV4 Addresses. APNIC matched this growth by adding an additional 5M new addresses of its own.
Registrar Number of IPV4 [...]

15 Mar 2009On a daily basis, I update the Geographic IP database that I created many years ago. Although not as powerful as some of the commercially available Geographic databases, it has more than served my purposes over the years.
One of the benefits of collecting this data is being able to extract substantial metrics on the distribution [...]

22 Aug 2007My system has a daily job to collect and aggregate the IP Blocks distributed by the five registrars into a single database, and then provide high-level WHOIS information for this data. If you want to try this yourself, the interface here.
On an extremely irregular basis, I aggregate the statistics from this data, and present it [...]

15 Sep 2006Over the last 12 hours, we have had some pretty remarkable “wildlife” scenes in our yard.
Last night, as I took Wiggles out for her walk, she found a cat…a striped, stinky cat.
Skunk 1, Wiggles 0.
We suspect that it had been hiding under our back porch. We are taking steps to encourage it to find new [...]

6 Mar 2005I made the attempt. No one can fault me for that. However, I was defeated by the twisted, anarchic madness that is the ARIN database.
A step back: I was considering refining the GrabIP database to more accurately reflect the true countries where IPs are used.
APNIC, LACNIC and AFRINIC are all sanely managed. Countries and IP [...]
IP Addresses by Country and Registrar — August 2008
In: Commentary| Technology
25 Aug 2008The five top-level IP Registrars (ARIN, RIPE, APNIC, LACNIC, AFRINIC) manage tens of million IPV4 and IPV6 addresses, assigning them to networks around the world. These addresses are key to accessing the Internet for all end-users.
About once a year, I generate the statistics out of the IP address database I maintain. The last one was [...]
