Daryl,
I happen to own a iso-3166-2.com domain (ar.com) and a large part of the
queries to my name servers are for SLDs under .AR. which is the ccTLD
for Argentina.
The number of queries for *.com.ar.com., which all fail is significant
compared to queries for anything valid under ar.com.
I suspect similar behavior for any 2 letter SLD in a gTLD that has a
matching iso-3166-2 ccTLD.
best regards,
-rick

Just one of those things thought about in the wee hours.
