What You Get After Running an SSH Honeypot for 30 Days
A lot of these seem to use zmap (https://github.com/zmap/zmap) or massscan (https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/masscan) for the initial scan.
Often with default parameters such as zmap setting ip id to 54321, having tcp initial window at 65535, having no SACK bit set and masscan with no SACK bit either, tcp initial window at 1024, tcp maximum segment size 1460 (which is strange to put below initial window size!), (older versions having fixed src port 61000 or 60000 from documentation examples and no MSS set), all of which are extremly uncommon in legitimate traffic and thus easily identified.
Even those so called "legitimate" scanners (emphasis on the "") seem to use these tools with little or no extra configuration.

Dns Reverse Lookup
Should you be in the mood to script doing a lot of lookups, you can feed dig a file of domain names (one per line) to look up (dig -f names.txt > dig.out). But if you're heading off in that direction you probably want https://github.com/zmap/zdns (and carefully read the "Running ZDNS" section of README.md before you make your recursive resolver sick).
What are some alternatives?
masscan - TCP port scanner, spews SYN packets asynchronously, scanning entire Internet in under 5 minutes.
masscan_as_a_service - masscan as a service
netscan - A fast TCP port scanner
