I count the number of distinct reg-ids in the RIR statistics files (ftp.<RIR>.net/pub/stats/<RIR>/delegated-<RIR>-extended-latest, where <RIR> is in {afrinic,apnic,arin,lacnic}). The file format document defines this field as: This is an in-series identifier which uniquely identifies a single organisation, an Internet number resource holder. All records in the file with the same reg-id are registered to the same resource holder. -- Oleg Muravskiy RIPE NCC
