I switched DNS from my ISP to free dns services on the web to avoid
tracking and data being sold. I started seeing a lot of "looking up
xyz.com" in the browser, so I decided to set up bind as a locally
caching name server.  However, even though it seems to be configured
the way it is supposed to be, I am still seeing those messages, even
when I hit back in the browser, so for pages I just visited that I
think should be cached.

Execute

rndc dump

If everything is set up correctly, and with the default settings, bind should dump its cache into /var/tmp/named_dump.db, or /var/named/chroot/var/tmp/named_dump.db

You can grep through it for recently visited hostnames.

Would I be better off using something like privoxy or squid?  I saw

Using a proxy does not magically eliminate the need to make DNS lookups. Either your browser does this, or the proxy. And it doesn't matter who does it, it's either cached, or not.
