In DNS TXT-records, you could store two values: Last Update and Current Time. If current time doen't change for some time (greater TTL), DNS records are being cached. You need to drop back to HTTP HEAD instead. If current time changes frequently (in TTL + some little amont), DNS is reliable. This needs to be checked be freshclam I think.
