It doesn't have anything for 1221, which according to
route-views.oregon-ix.net is Telstra.  Is there a single complete
database
that has ASN assignment info?

Well, when I can't find it quickly, I usually check RIPE, 
as the RIPE
whois will tell you which region the ASN is delegated to, and which
registrar to check with. And according to RIPE, 1221 is most
definitely in
the lower range controlled by ARIN. No idea why ARIN doesn't have a
record
for it...they only carry records for ASN 16779, which is 
Telstra-USA.

I noticed that as well. But a quick google shows that Telstra is most
definitely AS1221. Maybe they forgot to renew one of their AS Numbers?
