OK we figured it out. :)  Are you using OpenDNS for your DNS service? 
That IP is one of the OpenDNS search engine servers.

The way that bit of code determines your address is a bit wrong, it
finds your hostname using Sys::Hostname and then does a DNS lookup on
it.  I'm guessing what happened is your hostname is fake and your local
DNS server doesn't know about it, and so it resolved to the default
OpenDNS search engine IP address.

Try running this little one-liner to see what it thinks your hostname
is:

perl -MSys::Hostname -e 'print Sys::Hostname::hostname()';

We should probably change that bit of code to get your local IP address
another way that doesn't involve DNS.
