Casey,

Lots of good questions :).
Many zones on the servers. Just comparing total query count for all domains for 
which they are auth servers. 
They are almost identical in every way although I can see a slight possibility 
that ns2 has a bit slower network connection. 
Yup, the names of the servers are as similar as suggested here. And both 
nameservers have glue records.
Thanks for the feedback!

Marty

Who can tell me why queries are distributed this way? 

I assume you are comparing queries for names within the same zone on both 
servers?  If so, do either (or both) of the name servers have glue?  Are the 
names of the servers as similar as you suggest (e.g., within the same domain), 
or are they different?  How different are the servers in terms of their network 
connectivity (i.e., to compare response time)?
