It should be fine; whether someone abuses our API directly or via your
proxy doesn't really matter on our side.

If you set up a real proxy server, it should obey the Cache-Control
header instructing it to cache responses for 24 hours. If you write
your own makeshift proxy in PHP or something, please have it cache its
fetches from api.php , and for your own good have it send
Cache-Control: public, s-maxage=86400, max-age=86400 as well.
