Hi Umashankar,
If you receive a 420 error you should follow the back off strategy I
mentioned to Zaver. We don't discuss how Seach handles it's rate limiting,
just approaches on what to do if you fine yourself rate limited.

Hi Matt,
Do the failed requests count [one's with 420 response] into the tally
for the next hour?

If you still get 420, wait 1 minute. Continue doubling the time you wait
until the 420 stops and you get results. Then gradually increase y
