If you use the PPC Chooser, it will allow you to choose an IP based 
target and return the correct structure.  To see this work you could 
connect to an IP based ToolServer from BBEdit.

You can also build the structure by hand if you know the IP address. 
Unfortunately the information to do such is only available in seeded 
headers.  The new Universal Headers haven't been released to the 
public yet and as such if I copy the relevant information here I'm 
likely to be violating my NDA.
