I'm working on a web app that runs a lot of queries on the twitter search JSON Api.
Does anyone know what happens if you fire too many requests at the API? Does it just throttle your requests with timeouts or does it actually ban your IP? I'm sending about 1 per second for like 10-15 minute bursts. So far so good. However I would like to do more. Before I fire up a bunch of threads I want to make sure my IP won't get banned.
