   The OP didn't make clear what his actual intentions are.   
      
   The only purpose of his 'premise' icanhazip is one's own IP.   
      
   He also said this:

   ... which doesn't clarify to me what his actual intentions are.   
      
   I think the OP should state what his intentions are before people start   
   finding him a tool to perform some ambiguous task.
