I agree with Tom's comments.  I don't know of any free services that come
close to matching what something like Maxmind provides.

If you do have a Geo-IP service that is available via a REST API, then you
could most likely use the existing `REST_GET` function instead of creating
your own function.  It should be noted that the performance of calling out
to a REST service is likely to be less than what you would get from
`GEO_GET`, but that may not be a problem for you.
