This isn't actually a whois class, it's a class that selects a whois server for a domain. If multiple whois servers are available, it chooses a random one.
The script uses this XML file to get the servers (human-readable version here).
As per their request, by default the class keeps a local cache of the XML file and updates once a day. To enable caching, make the directory the cache will be in writable. To disable caching change

Here is the class
I wrote the whole class except the parsexml() function which I found on php.net. Do what you want with the code.
Here are two examples:

Here are two examples:
PHP:
$ws = new whoisserver;
echo $ws->go("http://www.yarrt.com")."\n"; // should return "whois.crsnic.net"
echo $ws->go("http://hello.uyp")."\n"; // should return false
