I _would_ be surprised if you said any number other than zero since it's im-fucking-possible to have a dedicated server on a "shared IP".
Your entire initial post is complete bullshit because it's simply not possible for a 3rd party tool to accurately know what domains are hosted on an IP. They can collect a list of domains that they have SEEN on that IP, but it would be not be practical to keep updating that list. To my knowledge here is no crystal ball that will ACCURATELY and RELIABLY tell you what domains are on an IP. If I am wrong may some pedantic network engineer strike me down.
Let this be another fucking hosting lesson for this board, half the hosting reps have no fucking clue what they are talking about, how TCP/IP works, how HTTP works, how a server works, etc. Here is a tip. You want to know how many domains are on "your" ip? ASK YOUR FUCKING HOST. They are the only ones who can give you an accurate number. If your host says "The IP is yours and yours alone" and you go to some so called reverse ip lookup page and it says there are 2000 domains on the ip, the IP was probably used before. Think your host is lying? Start doing dns lookups on all those domains in that list and see where they really go. You all have the tools, Windows comes with a ping command, tracert command, a pathping command, an nslookup command, all of which will show you the ip of a domain.
And you run/represent a hosting company, right? WTF dude.
