Try having bind forward the requests to another public DNS server like opendns.  
You could even protect yourself by having opendns block malware and other bad 
sites.   My bind named.conf.options file has the forwarding setup like this.

         forwarders {
         // opendns
         //        208.67.222.222;
         //        208.67.220.220;
         127.0.2.1;
         };
         forward only;

If you are really worried that your DNS queries are being diverted by man in the 
middle attacks use dnscrypt-proxy.  I have dnscrypt-proxy listening on 127.0.2.1 
(as above shows) and forwarding bind's DNS queries to opendns (cisco) over a 
secure channel.  I even redirect all DNS (port 53 udp) queries to any server to 
my bind with a shorewall redirect rule (firewall).

This setup returns this from a host command:

host  maibokun.com
maibokun.com has address 210.188.220.102
maibokun.com mail is handled by 10 mail.maibokun.com.
