Where can a person go to get a "one stop" WHOIS query for AS and prefix

I kinda like:

whois -h whois.geektools.com foo

Works for IPs, ASes, domains, etc. Auto-detects, no need for "as-foo" or the like. Source is available.

There is a web query at www.geektools.com, but that's silly.

It does limit the number of queries a day, but you can ask them to raise the limit for you if you have legit reasons.
