Will my iOS app be rejected after submission, if I try to use Itunes Search Api in codebase? #12

In order to provide force update feature, I need a version check in my code. I was thinking to use Itunes search api, I can use it to compare two versions and provide a force upgrade option on version mismatch. Was just a bit skeptical though before going on with this approach, I have heard apple might reject submissions if Itunes search api is used. I could not find exact thread which suggest the case, hence thought of asking it here. Kindly help. Thanks in advance.

I've never heard of an instance of an app being rejected for using this API to date and no App Store submission rules are broken by using this API to my knowledge - hope this helps.
