I don't see how you could call the results from any other method "DNS
response times."
If you used a web browser to measure from, you'd be introducing all
sorts of other latencies. Delays from the web server itself. The
webserver may have to talk to a database to output the HTML. The
transfer of the actual HTML code isn't instantaneous. (ad that's just
off the top of my head).
