New records are being continually added to the Ancestry Database. So even if you have looked there previously, it may be time to re-check the database.
Just in the last two months many Swedish & Belgium birth records have been added, plus Dutch & Danish records and various German records in their original languages.

On the English side –
London, England, Marriage Licences, 1521-1869 added in February 2009
The England & Wales, Birth Index: 1916-2005 – was updated in January, along with the England & Wales, FreeBMD Birth Index, 1837-1915

Also added from New South Wales were -
New South Wales, Australia, Registers of Convicts' Applications to Marry, 1826-1851
And New South Wales, Australia, Certificates of Naturalization, 1849-1903
