Going by inference of the updates we're seeing, you'd be getting
bogusname.com.au because people put in any name they please, ie:

177.162.111.202.in-addr.arpa.  20M IN PTR  server.master.lihua.
19.255.109.202.in-addr.arpa.  20M IN PTR  xmzct-lh88y28iu.domain.zxz.
22.130.118.211.in-addr.arpa.  20M IN PTR  twins.crusoeworld.
2.185.130.61.in-addr.arpa.  20M IN PTR  tc1.www.textclickcom.
114.27.100.202.in-addr.arpa.  20M IN PTR  mail.xa.xa.
