Nobody is against the idea, problem is scalability and trust.
To make domain age usable, the BLs I mentioned make use of it as well as
many other daata points to gain trust that a listing won' tbite the
globe, as well as they can.
Consider certain factors wich *can* contribute to delay in listings
produce a positive hit,for example, mirror lag due to rsync, negative
TTL, etc. as reasosn why you seem to see these domains being listed
after you got the spams.
(If your size/budget permits, datafeeds would probably help a lot)
For a small site doing a few whois lookups/hour it may work, but what if
