To show the origin country, a general way is to lookup into a MySQL database with updated IP country ranges, GeoLite Free is a choice. Some commercial databases provide location even into cities. After this, you can use the country code to get their corresponding flag.

To get WHOIS information there are several PHP classes that perform this function.

User agent and Referral URL is easy obtainable through $_SERVER environment variable. Deviating server load to client processing using Javascript to perform this tasks -like in your code- is always better.
