ICANN chose to not require logging for controlled interruption, so measuring
it like that will be difficult.  However, enterprises can make their own
measurements.

Over the weekend I updated dnstop[1] so that it will show queries for names
in the new gTLDs.  An enterprise or other organization that depends on
not-fully-qualified names internally may want to run dnstop with this
filter to see if they are leaking queries and relying on NXDOMAIN responses.
e.g.,

  $ sudo dnstop -f new-gtlds eth0
