Not getting all data such as Registrant/Admin/Tech Contact by setting verbose to true.

[bluerid]

I am trying to fetch all whois data associated with a domain.

whois.lookup('google.com', { "verbose": true }, function(err, data){
       if (err) throw err;
          console.log(data);
          console.log('-------------');
});

Even if I set verbose to true, the request is returning the minimal set of data.
Here is the response for google.com.

I want data for administrative/technical/registrant contact. I believe this module is able to return as I see it in the readme.

Hi, @bluerid!

I also encountered this issue. So what happened is it wasn't able to resolve the whois registrar server that it suppose to redirect the query to.
I just fixed the regular expression in the package. See below.

From: /(ReferralServer|Registrar Whois|Whois Server|WHOIS Server):[^\S\n](r?whois://)?(.?)/
To: /(ReferralServer|Registrar Whois|Whois Server|WHOIS Server):[^\S\n](r?whois://)?(.)/
Just remove the last question mark.

Not sure if this is the correct fix. The authors need to check on this. I could send a PR for this fix tomorrow.
