API issues equals site is falling apart, the truth of the matter is that api's don't usually ever fail and volume would not cause an api to fail. Blockchain's api is more than capable of handling your volume its limitations within 5 minutes are 700 requests.

You are totally wrong. API's do fail. BlockChain.info currently is the worst choice, and they DO BLOCK API access instantly without warning, when their limits are exceeded.
Also, Projects like these can only use blockchain.info WITHOUT API KEY, because they don't give them out to ANY this type of Projects, so the limitations are LOW.

To be more correct, BlockChain API's do fail often. This is why we are now switching to BlockTrail API - https://www.blocktrail.com/api
They have MUCH Better limitations, and they actually do warn you, if there is an issue with the API Requests.

You're website does not make 700 api requests within 5 minutes so how are your limits exceeded? And why is this entire page just newbies posting?

How can you assume an API Request count of a system you don't even know? You have not seen the script, and you can not possibly have an Idea how it works, when and how much requests it makes.
Our web-site makes about 150-200 API Calls every ONE minute + About 1000 now every 5 minutes seperatly.
