I am planning to use the new places autocomplete api (http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/places/autocomplete.html). I would like to know the query rate limits on this particular api. Since its autocomplete, query rate will naturally be very high. I could not find any documentation mentioning rate limits for this particular api. Any information on this regard will be very useful.

Thanks
Rajesh

We don't publish the limits. Really, in this case they're irrelevant, because the limit is imposed per-client.

The page says:

"The Google Places Autocomplete API is part of the Google Places API
and shares an API key and quotas with the Places API."

which says:

"Users with an API key are allowed 1,000 requests per 24 hour period.
Users who have also verified their identity through the APIs console
are allowed 100,000 requests per 24 hour period."

Does the json call offer a jsonp callback? Otherwise, won't the call
be logged against the web server's ip address for quota limits rather
than the client's ip address?

Please advise on how to use this API for a jsonp callback or does the
webserver need to call the json file and load it each time it changes
as a json file so that it is on the same domain as the website with
the autocomplete text field?

Please advise.
