Hi all,
It turns out that after all of this the 503 was not the root
cause of this issue. I found a way around the proxy errors and will
keep the response code as is.
Thanks;

I think using 400 is much easy to handle the responses than using 401.
Because I can use same http client code and same error handling code
for both search API and REST API. In my case, I wrote a error handler
which alerts a dialog whenever it gets a 401 because search API
wouldn't return 401.

You could compromise and do a 400.5.... O_o

Of course right after sending a lengthy public email I see
something that
could let us keep 503 and fix the proxy errors. I'm working with
operations
on that, and if it does not pan out I'll confer with Alex on 400
versus 401.
Stay tuned.

We use 400 for rate limiting on the REST API. Matt and I are
discussing whether or not this might be the correct response.
Thoughts?

The error code for search rate limiting will be changing from HTTP
503 to HTTP 401 in the very near future (today or tomorrow). For
details, continue reading.
Are you sure you want to use 401 for this? 401 would indicate
authorization
required. If you're asking for credentials, that would make sense,
but if
you're not, I would think the 503 is still the proper response
irrespective
of broken proxies. I don't see other codes that have that one's
temporal
semantics.
