Yeah, the MaxMind data is as of March 2014 -- out of date. Sorry about that!

If you're interested in using the http://ipinfo.io API for this, so you don't have to worry about keeping your database up to date and you get additional details, let me know. I'd be happy to hook you up with a free unlimited plan specifically for this site.

Sweet, I'd be interested! Ping me with your contact information, and I can let you know once I've wired it up to use that.

It seems like your getting this info from ARIN? Do you happen to have any restrictions on this API? Thanks!
