Therefore whatever that site returns does not match the regexp above. 
Fix the regexp. I suggest that a better regexp will be:

's/IP:[ \t]*\(.*\)<\/title>.*/\1/'

(and this time pipe the output of curl into it). If it still does not 
work, *do* look at the output of curl character by character, f.ex. 
using od -Ax -tax1

good luck,
Peter
