And that is based on a current database?

Because I update the monthly free ones from maxmind and they do pretty 
well if you match hostnames and whois info against their results these 
days.

There is also another free GeoIP perl modules out there which is rather 
inaccurate. So I would have to guess you were propably working with the 
wrong type.

I just happened to have tested them both in my own perl scripts I use for 
generating weekly overviews.
