Well, there is nictool (www.nictool.com).
We use that to run our tinydns. The advantage of it is that it has  
some sort of API and a SOAP-interface that you can interface with from  
3rd-party tools/control-panels.

It's designed to work well in a distributed manner.

The good thing about it is that this an extremely low-maintenance  
solution.
