Hi Rick, Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to change the rate limits applied to your requests. Can you give me more background on why you need to make so many requests per minute? If you are trying to retrieve stats on known keywords you can use the requestType STATS and batch up to 2000 keywords in a single request.
