The standard way seems to be to sighup lookupd itself. You can find the
pid in /var/run/lookupd.pid and just signal it.
I'm sure there are SC ways to do this too, as lookupd is restarted
whenever the network configuration changes. It used to be that lookupd
flushed the cache but now it restarts completely, with a new pid. IIRC
that change came with OS X 10.2.
