Sounds like it's trying to resolve '62.243.123.106' as though it's a DNS name. I haven't used HTTPAPI, but I'd guess that there is either a parameter or different procedure that allows connection directly by IP.

No. GEOIP is supposed to take an IP address and tell you where (which city/country) that IP address is located in.

It does that by contacting a web service, passing the 62.243.123.106 to the web service, and getting back a response.

Ah, makes sense. I guess I proved the rule about making assumptions :)
