this would be a nice legal alternative for imdb

Hey ..

We've implemented a page caching mechanism that results
in static pages. So i don't see any problem with 400 or 40.000
requests in a short time :-) As long as apache can handle it.

Cheers
 Ben

        This is great news! I'd like to use your api in a movie browsing
        application I'm working on. Is there a problem calling the service up
        to 400 times in a short time span? Should I wait a certain amount of
        time between searches? I will cache the data after the first lookup.

        At the moment we call imdb as main service (html parsing) but this is
        not allowed so we would like to switch to an open platform...
