Just watch out for subdomains when doing that!
We had our main site hosted on one of our servers and set up another
account on a subdomain elsewhere for a special project. The host would
only setup service on example.com, which was fine, we just weren't going to
use it - instead we went in and created subdom.example.com, pointed our dns
at their server, and everything worked fine - until their reaper script
decided we weren't using their server.
Moral of the story - have your script check for subdomains in all your
accounts and only delete if NONE of them (example.com, www.example.com, and
sub.example.com) is pointing at your servers.
