403 Error making geocode request

I am now getting an error after making subsequent geocode requests.

Warning: file_get_contents(http://local.yahooapis.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=MY_APP_ID&street=6727+N+5TH+ST&city=PHILADELPHIA&state=PA&output=php) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden

Request is:

file_get_contents(http://local.yahooapis.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=MY_APP_ID&street=6727+N+5TH+ST&city=PHILADELPHIA&state=PA&output=php

Response is:
HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden


I can provide my true value of MY_APP_ID if necessary. Could this be a throttling issue, or is there a problem with the format of my request?
