ORBS actually has a line of text that is meant to go in the headers.

The ip4r DNS lookups start by reversing the IP address and adding it to a domain, and 
looking up the A record.  For example, for 127.0.0.2 you could look up the A record 
for 2.0.0.127.inputs.orbs.org.  That returns "127.0.0.2".

You can go a step further, by getting the TXT record as well.  If you get the TXT 
record for 2.0.0.127.inputs.orbs.org, it shows "See 
http://www.orbs.org/blocked.html...."  The different ip4r lookups return different 
strings, often generic, but sometimes adding a specific reason that the domain was 
listed.
