How hard is this page to generate? Is this something that can be generated "on the fly"? (instead of every day/hour/request/whatever)?
There's 123 repositories, so if 40 people hit the page within an hour, we're out of the limit. And I would guess if any link it posted to ML, the number of people who will click it will be higher than that.
A varnish reverse proxy would fix that in a cinch. Simply set a TTL of two minutes.
The response time for requests that aren't cached would be terrible, and it would be likely to fail whenever github is overwhelmed.
