This may seem a stupid question, but since we now want to accept that accuracy

measure of an accurate 'whois' or at the macro level, ' an accurate registry 
service' ?......% of legacy holders participating on the registry?

It's actually a fairly complicated question, since there are many legacy holder 
who already
participate in the registry and update their resources (e.g. abuse contact, DNS 
servers)
without any formal contractual relationship with ARIN.  In any case, individual 
legacy holders
are unlikely to be the major contributor of inaccuracy in the registry when 
compared to those
parties who fail to update the registry with their reassignment information 
(despite the
requirement to do so per NRPM 4.2.3.7.)

We do know that many folks are quite good about making updates before they 
request
more IPv4 space, but that's unlikely to be a significant motivator for much 
longer...
