Number of users or number of messages is a good approximation of the
number of actual DNS queries, and sufficiently simple to determine.
At dnswl.org, we consider any source (being losely defined as a /24 doing
more than 100'000 queries / 24 hours as a "large" user, and ask them to
switch to rsync access (however this is not strongly enforced at present,
and does not involve money).
Does it help to configure one's DNS server to direct queries for this zone
to one's ISP's servers, to let the ISP provide some additional caching and
consolidation? I don't generally forward/stub to my ISP but I'd be willing
to do that for services like this to reduce load on the source.
