To ensure continuous quality of service, API usage can be
subject to throttling. The throttle will be applied if the API
consumer is deemed to be making excessive or unnecessary requests
to the API. If the throttle is applied an HTTP status code of 503
will be returned along with the standard API error response
message. Access to the API method will be reset after 30
seconds.
When querying methods which return lists of data, we encourage
developers to take appropriate measures such as caching results
from previous calls to reduce the number of requests to the API.
As a general rule, we recommend setting the cache expiration
to a minimum of 5 minutes.
