Todd,
never though that such a database does exist?
It is named the DNS.
If you say that mails between registrars and registrants will only go to
registrant@name.tld and that it is the responsibility of the registrant to
maintain the forward, you have the most secure way to get it.
And you know that the spaming on that mail comes from the Registrar :-)
If people fail to update, they de facto lose the DN, since they cannot
update the name server, etc..
The real joke is to make people believe that because there is a Whois and
an entry in the Whois, even accurate, the destinee will get the mail, will
read it, and will respond it :-)
If the target is to document the owner, do you really believe that
http://name.tld is not easier and will always be more updated with more
relevant info than http://whois.com?blabla=name.tld ?
