Actually, I am not doing what you think I am. I am using the RouteViews
aggregation of the BGP routing tables. RouteViews is a project at the
univ. of Oregon that peers with backbones and other ASes at interesting
locations so as to make it as comprehensive as possible. Also, it updates
the data every 2 hours of everyday. So, I am looking at almost full and
fresh data :>
