Apparently Akismet is having a hard time at the moment. Someone's dumping a major spam run at the moment (Akismet had to deal with ~3m spam posts in one day a few days ago), and this possibly took down typepad briefly.
Aside - Akismet is probably a nice example of a single point of failure, it despams many millions of blogs/sites, and I'm sure that it's on a lot of spammer hit lists. They've tweaked their algo's to try to better handle what they call "random nonsense content", so it's possibly a combination of these tweaks and the loading that's causing hiccups.
