You can query the IP registries via whois, those registries being RIPE, APNIC, ARIN, etc, to find out who is delegated the address space. That is about as close as you will get if they have no reverse entry.

These are relatively expensive lookups, so I wouldn't by policy do a whois on every IP that hits your system.
