Hourly rate limits on Placefinder

Is there any better information on the hourly rate limiting on the Placefinder API. My application works perfectly but after about 1000 lookups I get a 503 error, 'Rate limit exceeded' The official documents mention nothing of this (http://developer.yahoo.com/search/rate.html).

My application actually has a 1200 millisecond delay between each request to try to stop the problem but this makes no difference. Since I'm paying per lookup it's very frustrating to be blocked for 24 hours while I try to find the limit. I also cannot understand how the prices lists the cost per 1000 lookups for over 35,000 lookups per day, how can anyone possibly reach those limits?
