Domain Name varchar(255) Top/Second Level Domain Name

Disclaimer:
The database contains our best estimate for the domain name for every IP address, but may not be accurate or complete in all cases. We sample each /24 block to determine the domain name for the block of 256 IP addresses, which works when the domain name is the same across a given block. For example, the domain for 24.24.24.0 - 24.24.24.225 is rr.com. This typically works when the IP addresses are allocated to an ISP. However for colocated web servers, this may not work since each IP address may be assigned to a different domain within a /24 block.
