You do not need an API for that. Just do DNS lookups.

On most operating systems, you can perform the following command:

nslookup http://hostname.dyndns.org

(where you replace hostname.dyndns.org with the actual hostname you want to look up)

Then that is what the hostname is currently resolving to. How have you confirmed that it should be resolving to something else?

Sorry that does not work. Whenever I enter nslookup http://mydomain.dyndns.org I get MY ip-address as answer and not the current ip-address of http://mydomain.dyndns.org.
