Here is an article I found on Amazon API throttling:

That API does not apply here. Although it does give some idea of how few requests for data Amazon allows per unit of time before throttling.
One suggestion is to do them in small groups until you are blocked and then wait until the next day to do more.
Another is to use a VPN to have your requests go to Amazon from a different IP address. When you are blocked then disconnect and reconnect the VPN to try to get a different IP address. Some VPNs allow you to select the city/country from which the IP will be assigned. You could vary that each time.
