If you need a fast lookup, you'll probably need to maintain a database
with rules for each TLD you intend to support.

Otherwise you could go for a series of "whois" lookups. If whois
succeeds for "site.com.af" but fails for "subdomain.site.com.af", then
"site.com.af" was probably what you was looking for.

- Maybe a combination with a database or hard coded rules for the most
used TLDs.
