Different results from different sources

Trying to figure out why the data returned from asnmap is different from the data provided by bgpview.

With asnmap I receive 7 prefixes:

> asnmap -a AS6431 -silent
12.106.32.0/22
204.178.0.0/20
207.76.218.0/24
207.140.168.0/24
192.20.225.0/24
135.197.0.0/16
135.205.0.0/16
135.207.0.0/16

and with bgpview I receive 17 prefixes:

Any idea what's happening in the background here?

@nickpending asnmap data is based on and limited to what available at https://iptoasn.com/

Okay, thanks. I did some analysis and it seems that some data in iptoasn.com is summarized. While summarized data can be useful in certain use cases, I think detailed data would be preferred? I wonder if that's something that should be considered for future releases?
