For the GeoIP data you could try using something like this:

http://www.maxmind.com/app/ip-location

They have plenty of APIs. I use it with PHP all the time and it works reasonably well for the free version. But you could setup your own host for it since they seem to be having issues with speed (and might be throttling stuff because of scripts like this).

And since it's your birthday....

You can try using this... you won't have to do nearly as much parsing...

http://wetnun.net/ip_info.php?ip=64.56.205.72

If you don't pass in an ip it will use the ip that the request came in from and give you a message about passing in the ip. Yay for 1 minute of copying a file and doing minor tweaks to it.

Might be better to come up with some way of building an array of ip addresses and then having it do a bulk request (I'd need to modify by script but it's no big deal) so it only has to make one remote call since each sequencial request takes time and could effect page load time.
