Many of the Google APIs allow you to send a client IP as a parameter now. This helps them better determine what requests are generated by end user interaction vs. automated queries. If the API you're using supports this, I would highly suggest you use it - it should help alleviate false positives. Also make sure you're sending a valid api token - some of the APIs don't require it, but not sending one will increase your chances of being identified as an automated query.
