Distributed Denial of Service attack. Basically a bunch of people get the server IP and send a bunch of data to it, flooding the server and causing the website to crash.

BTW, Im not 100% sure about this.

Try going to CMD and doing ipconfig DNSflush (or something like that)

The correct command is "ipconfig /flushdns" but in this case it won't help. Your DNS cache (in this case, at least) isn't causing you any issues. The server's IP is being resolved correctly - if it weren't, you wouldn't be able to see this page - it's just that the master server isn't correctly handling AoS server connections and displaying them on the "play" page. It's a problem on the AoS server, *you* can't fix it.
