I don't think there's any way for you to get that listing yourself.  You
should be able to send mail to them and they'll send you back a listing.

I think one of the options you can specify when you register a host is that
they should request confirmation from you before allowing it to be
referenced in a domain registration.  Check out the host registration form.
