API request limit

[gavin....@gmail.com]

Hi,

The api request limit is apparently 4000 requests per day.

So can anyone explain this.  I only had 15 sessions with 56 page views on Sunday and I'm using caching, yet my allowance seems to be used up by breakfast, in my case around 9:00am , it seems worse on Saturday and Sunday even though my stats aren't any different.

I also don't request end points to songs unless the person clicks on that particular song to play. 

So how can the total be to 4000 requests?   I suppose if I really wanted to check this I could record each request for the day :(

Gavin,

We can confirm you are exceeding your limit.

We can see you have made requests to:

~/artist/details
~/artist/releases
~/release/tracks
~/release/details

Have you considered all of these endpoints as they all count towards the daily limit?

Thanks,

EA
