How is .inc availability checked?
.inc publishes an RDAP service through IANA's registry directory, so availability comes from the registry itself rather than from scraped text. That is the strongest answer this tool can give.
Results for this extension come back as a definitive available or registered answer.
How the checker answers thousands of names at once is in the Checker guide. Already registered? Marketplaces such as GoDaddy Auctions, SedoPartner, Dan.com list names for resale, and Domain Hub watches one until it drops.
