Hi Pierre,
Thank you for the heads up. I was aware of altdb but it hadn't crossed
my mind. Hopefully one of these solutions will work :-).

Are you talking about automatically checking entries in an IRR, or
RPKI?
For service providers requesting an IRR route object to automate
filter creation I've been using altdb. While it has not a lot of value
in terms of authorization (anyone can create objects about any
resource - a proper LOA has more value here) it is usually enough for
provisioning tools to create appropriate filters / prefix-lists:
$ whois -h
whois.altdb.net 44.151.210.0
route: 44.151.210.0/24
descr: F4INU
origin: AS206155
mnt-by: MAINT-AS206155
$ bgpq3 -4 -l F4INU as206155
no ip prefix-list F4INU
ip prefix-list F4INU permit 44.151.210.0/24
73 de F4INU
