Anyone have a suggestion for free ip address geolocation service?  I'm
using the api from http://www.hostip.info/ now, but wondered if there
are others perhaps better with international addresses.
      

Just for giggles I went there, it told me that I was in Sacramento,
CA, at least it got the right country.

  
Check out Geobytes - http://www.geobytes.com/
    

And this one got the correct state, but says I'm in Concord, NC.
  

I have had spotty results with those as well.  I just found another one www.maxmind.com    I spot checked 10 or so IP's around the US and their database was 100% accurate.  It's not a free service but they only charge $20 for 50,000 web service hits.
