in the example i posted earlier, i included some numbers from one member of
the "f troop", which showed ~21M packets from rfc1918 space over the course
of ~106 days.  that's 241 queries per second.  on only one host of many.
granted it's not much as a percentage of the total, but it's not "a few".

sorry, i mixed up my numbers.  it's only a trickle of queries per second at
any given f-root node.  but it sure adds up when you look at all f-root nodes
together, or when you look at all root servers together.
