Regarding twitter search API request limit

On the twitter Rate Limiting page(https://dev.twitter.com/docs/rate-limiting) it says

"Unauthenticated calls are permitted 150 requests per hour. Unauthenticated calls are measured against the public facing IP of the server or device making the request."

  1. Is that the measurement based on enduser IP address or the server IP(ip of http:xxxx.com) ?
  2. Is there a way to increase the limit may be through some paid service of Twitter ?

  1. Server IP
  2. No. But you should use authenticated calls (oAuth) - you get 350 requests per hour. Each authenticated user of your app has 350 calls you can use, IP ignored.
