Resolve IP to HOSTNAME kinda

$

Ok, so I'll try explain this as best I can with the limited time I have to make this post...

I have a CommandFusion LAN Bridge that sends me push notifications for various events, but it only supports entering an IP for a push service. Recently Growl changed the way they do things and they require you to use their host-name which is api.prowlapp.com. If I resolve that into their IP using nslookup, I get: 54.225.207.133, 23.21.249.174 and 23.23.183.201. If I use any of those in the IP field, nothing gets pushed. After talking to their support they said we must use the host-name api.prowlapp.com, and that the resolved IPs will change from time to time.

So... Is there any way either in my router (Draytek Vigor 2120) or an app I could run on my Windows Server to allow me to resolve an IP I put in my LAN Bridge to prowls host-name api.prowlapp.com?

Cheers for any help and hope it makes some sense
