Ok.

Does anyone know the purpose of http://www.whoishostingthis.com/ when it never lists the right host?

Is there a better site to find their host?

Command line tools such as whois and dig used together with traceroute will usually tell you who the host is. In cases where a front end proxy exists it's more difficult, however there are things you can do to discover the host.
