I kinda like:
whois -h whois.geektools.com foo
Works for IPs, ASes, domains, etc. Auto-detects, no need for "as-foo"
or the like. Source is available.
There is a web query at www.geektools.com, but that's silly.
It does limit the number of queries a day, but you can ask them to
raise the limit for you if you have legit reasons.
