Whois Query API/Provider, anyone know any services that provide whois querying?

Hey Guys,

Im looking for a provider that has an API that i can use to query Whois details for domains, parsed or unparsed. I probably need a large monthly allowance. Implemented my own, but not really that practical due to whois server limits (some TLD servers have a very small daily/hourly limit).

Does anyone know a cheap provider with an API? Happy to pay (cheaper the better), just need it to support as many TLDs as possible, specially since all the new ones coming out.

Cheers.
