an accurate domain checker is just that when it says available and ready for registration it's ready and not just inactive. i have my own whois script installed on my server.

you need to have some tools to check the whois not just merely browsing the domain, you can use this as well www.whois.sc it will redirect to it's new name to check on a particular domain if it's taken, do this whois.sc/domain.com of course replace domain.com with an actual domain name you want to check for availability.

The best way to check ANY domain is Linux shell, hands down. Unlike some web searches (esp. whois.sc, which is super-innaccurate), it will ALWAYS connect to the right whois server and get 100% upto date information.
