4. Authentication

Right now we support basic authentication. But to take care security of username/password of users, we authenticate user based on md5 encrypted key. Very soon we will support oauth for better security.

5- Rate Limiting

The CodeMunch API only allows clients to make a limited number of calls in a given hour.
The default rate limit for calls is 100 requests per hour. Right now does IP based rate limiting.
