The google library doesn't use the official API. Google is known to block "bots" whenever. The alternative is to use the official API, but it requires an API key, might cost money, and is probably not as "nice" to use. This would require more configuration for the user (acquiring a key and setting it up in the bot configuration).

Fix ur bot:

Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. Please try your request again later. Why did this happen?

This page appears when Google automatically detects requests coming from your computer network which appear to be in violation of the Terms of Service. The block will expire shortly after those requests stop.

This traffic may have been sent by malicious software, a browser plug-in, or a script that sends automated requests. If you share your network connection, ask your administrator for help — a different computer using the same IP address may be responsible. Learn more

Sometimes you may see this page if you are using advanced terms that robots are known to use, or sending requests very quickly.

Sorry, there's nothing that I can do about this except for using the paid google API which is not that good of an idea.
