Hello there,
The reset-time-in-seconds is a the UNIX time (a.k.a Epoch time,
number of seconds since 1970-01-01 UTC) at which the rate limit will
reset.
Thanks;

Hi, I'm creating a small app
So I would just get the UTC time convert it to a date and find the
difference in time between UTC time and time now?

Yup. In all likelihood your programming language or environment
already has a function for getting the current epoch time and you can
just subtract the two to find out the number of seconds remaining.

Are you sure that your current time is not returning local time instead of
UTC time? If you're in PDT, that would make sense.

Ok, the difference I'm getting is still 8 hours...
7/2/2009 11:41:23 PM(epoch time) : 7/2/2009
Obviously, that will only work in your time zone. What language are you
using? Most have a way to get the current time in UTC time as opposed to
local time.

Wow I feel stupid lol. I noticed I have to subtract 8 hours from it.
My VB is very rusty, but can you use DateTime.UtcNow instead of Now?

I'm using VB6, heres my code in case you know it...
Dim iSec As Long
Dim iNow As Long
iSec = Parsed time from XML
iNow = DateDiff(s, #1/1/1970#, Now,
Actually, I think that might be specific to VB.NET and I just read you're
using 6. I think that you can use the GetSystemTime API call[1] to do the
same thing in VB6.
