Monks,

I'm wanting to use Net::Whois::IP but I'm not sure how to obtain the data after doing the query. Here is what the documentation states: 
use Net::Whois::IP qw(whoisip_query);

  my $ip = "192.168.1.1";
#Response will be a reference to a hash containing all information
#provided by the whois registrar
#The array_of_responses is a reference to an array containing referenc
+es
#to hashes containing each level of query done.  For example,
#many records have to be searched several times to
#get to the correct information, this array contains the responses
#from each level
  my ($response,$array_of_responses) = whoisip_query($ip);

I have to admit, I'm not too clear on references even after reading perlref. I would most appreciate any assistance the monastary might be able to provide.

Thanks,
-Dru
