That might be right for requesting html-pages  but isn't when you do a search via the WorldCat-Search-API, which - of course - is not open and delivers MARC XML, Dublin Core, RSS or Atom responses. See http://worldcat.org/devnet/wiki/SearchAPIDetails 

I'm very curious: Are there catalogs with similar APIs which are open to everyone?
