get a domain's dns records

[Todd Snyder]

It seems to do a regular lookup, plus maybe an ANY

But I've also noticed that it seems to find test.domain.com.  I often put a 'test.whatever.com. IN A 127.0.0.1' into zones and a couple I checked it found them, even though it shouldn't have by "normal" means

it also found a 'blog' record I had on one of my domains ...

so, it must be looking for some specific records in addition to general lookups.

I'm jsut curious, how does "who.is" know the dns records in my domain 
(nsbeta.info)? 

The page shows some of my RRs exactly: 

http://who.is/dns/nsbeta.info/
