There's nothing odd about it. DynDNS type services EXIST to provide name resolution, of course ntop can resolve it!
$ nslookup xxxxxxxxxx.dyndns.org Note: nslookup is deprecated and may be removed from future releases. Consider using the `dig' or `host' programs instead. Run nslookup with the `-sil[ent]' option to prevent this message from appearing.

Hi! I've found out, that ntop is able to resolve the dyndns record (via a reverse-DNS lookup(!)) of my laptop - how is this possible? I've just had a quick glance at the source code, but didn't find anything - I am really interested how this is done - so if somebody could give me a hint - I'd appreciate that! Thank you!
