You can log rejected queries:

logging {
   channel "security_logfile" { file "thefile"; };
   category "security" { "security_logfile"; };
}

...then do "rndc reconfig". Examine the logs. Find the source IP of the 
query and the query name. Determine why it's being rejected.

It could just be source-spoofed DoS junk.
