You run the DNS server, SA does the queries, they get routed through the standard DNS hierarchy, you get to see them (and respond), interpret and make that data available via any mechanism you want - probably also via (a different?) DNS. A short TTL would reduce lost data (in fact, the only possible cached-caused data loss would be for duplicate queries from the same SA instance)
