Can i do a whois for my customers

We are going to start registering some domains for our customers. I would like  to be able to do a whois ( or something to determine if the domain is available)

i found a old article that suggested Net::Whois, but it appears that it does not work anymore. I think this was before the registrars started cracking on whois robots.

Thanks for any help

use Net::Whois::Raw;
print whois('experts-exchange.com');
