It would be great if I could set-up some time scheduling, let's say that between 22-06 all queries would resolve in "blocked" page.

Many routers offer this already. As an alternative, you could always install K9 Web Protection which has this feature.

What about timing the filter level. HIGH from 6am-11pm NONE from 11pm-6am

You could setup two profiles in OpenDNS with the settings for what you need, then automate the network selection/changes with a client-side application. It would take very little effort to do.

This could be difficult because your response of the IP could stay cached beyond the time limit. Let's say just before your time ends to access sales.com you go to the website. sales.com returns an IP with a TTL of 7200. This will stay cached on your computer or server for 2 hours. During this time the web page would still be usable.

The only way to get around this would be to manipulate the TTL that is returned to reflect the time left on the restriction. And the reversed with a blocked domain that will be going unblocked.

Not sure if OpenDNS is willing to brake the set TTL by the domain host.
