That's pretty unusual. If it's not doing anything rcon based, the only
possibility I can come up with is the frequency of your queries. Even so, I
don't believe that SRCDS automatically IP bans for excessive queries, to my
knowledge it simply throttles them.

Some relevant CVARs you might want to look at are:

sv_max_queries_sec
sv_max_queries_sec_global
sv_max_queries_window

To eliminate excessive queries as a culprit I'd just jack the
sv_max_queries_sec way up, and then see if the issue recurs.
