Off hand, does anyone know what the current rate limit is for making searches through the API? A quick Google search didn't find an answer, although it's late here, and perhaps my Google-fu is on the blink.

Added in edit: I may have found it - does 150 calls/hr seem right?

The Search API's limits are more fluid than the REST API. It generally allows for about 1 query per second.
