I worked with Adlex to update their software to identify and track dynamic addresses associated with subscriber RADIUS information. At the time, Adlex (now CompuWare) was the only off-the-shelf software that matched unique subscriber RADIUS instead of just IP address. It is behavior based, so not absolutely 100% accurate, but it is useful for long term trending "bot-like" unique subscribers instead of dynamic IP addresses.

There is a large difference between the number of unique subscribers versus the number of dynamic IP addresses detected by various public detectors. http://www.compuware.com/products/vantage/4920_ENG_HTML.htm
