There is no "give all aut-num objects" query.  However, for the RIPE 
Database, you can see all of the aut-num objects in an export on our 
FTP site:

ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/split/ripe.db.aut-num.gz

If you are running your own database based on the RIPE software, you 
can use the text_export utility to create a similar file from our own 
database.

Otherwise, you can write a simple script to do the queries:

$ perl -e 'foreach $as (1..65535) { system("whois -r -Tan AS$as") }'

Remove the lines beginning with '%' and you should have a complete 
map.  This will take a few minutes to run.
