Is there any way to run a few hundred requests?

I am using getPrevalence( function), got the following error: You have exceeded the API usage limit. Please limit the usage to 1 request/minute.

@AJFeng If you're running a few hundred requests, we suggest you add a pause between calls to avoid the throttling. You can add a Sys.sleep(pause_time) within your loop to add a pause_time pause between requests.
