You have been subscribed to a public bug:

On the page https://help.launchpad.net/TermsofUse we have the following section:
"""
Automated querying
We allow you to use scripts or robots to access the data contained on this 
website subject to the following conditions:

* Contact information for the organization running the script must be included 
in the 'User-Agent' HTTP header.
* If you think you will be requesting significantly more pages in a given 
period of time than a regular user, you should discuss this concern with us 
beforehand by sending an email to automated_access @ launchpad.net.
"""

When the API is released this section will need to be rewritten as it
was aimed primarily at screen-scrapers (hence the 'User-Agent'
language).

The email address listed has proved to be ineffective.  Since it was
added to this page there have been zero valid requests but hundreds of
spam messages.  It would be nice to remove the address completely.

'automated querying' restrictions may need rewording when API is released
