NPAC (LNP database) access from Neustar is available either via dial-up 
VPN or dedicated circuit (frame relay?), which runs a few hundred 
dollars a month + a large initial setup fee.

This is only available to real LECs - that is, if you have an OCN, CLLIs 
and SS7 point codes.

There is an LNPoIP product available as well called sipX, and similar 
terms apply.  In addition, you must sign NDAs for all NPAC territories 
and present evidence of substantial general liability insurance and 
workman's compensation insurance, where applicable.

In short, this service is not for the masses, and you probably can't 
have it unless you're a CLEC.
