identifying accession number's database

Hi all,

I have a list of accession numbers which could be from several
databases(e.g. NCBI, UniProt, Ensemble).  Does anyone know of a way I can
determine which database a particular accession number is from?

thanks,
Chase

Hans, thanks that was definitely helpful.  Looks like there isn't a perfect
solution, so I'll have to do a bit of guessing with my regexs.

Mark, I had a feeling my old google mentor wasn't going to let me off the
hook that easily once Hans said it was an open problem. :)  I'll dust off my
commit bit and see what I can do.

Cheers,
Chase

I know that a former coworker of mine (Serge, copied) has written Perl  
code that guesses for quite a number of possible sources. I don't know  
whether any of it is available somewhere.
