Only a subset of A records for a domain name returned

[rlz7]

When I query the authoritative DNS servers for a domain, I get
the following:

dig @ns21.yahoo.com proxy-kk-west.idp.inktomisearch.com

; <<>> DiG 9.2.2 <<>> @ns21.yahoo.com
proxy-kk-west.idp.inktomisearch.com

But when I query my ISP's DNS server, I only get a subset of
these records returned:

So there are 23 A records in the reply from Yahoo's DNS server, but
only
a dozen from my ISP's DNS server (sbcglobal.net).  The TTL associated
with the
records seems fairly short (300).  I can replicate this problem using
other
DNS servers (for the same lookup) as well.

Can someone shed some light on these results?  Thanks ...
