there are some perl modules to do that. they probably won't do the
whole parsing job, but they will provide functions to do the lookups for
you.
the debian packages are:
libnet-whois-perl Perl Module providing an API to access InterNIC whois
database
libnet-whois-raw-perl Perl Module providing an API to access whois database
i've never used these modules, just seen them in the debian package
listing...i know nothing more than that they exist.
note that there is no consistent output format between whois servers.
this makes whois basically useless as a source of data.
