What our site is basically about is that people can access some information retrieved from a database. This person registered and basically went and accessed all of the profiles stored on our server, sequentialy, using an automated process (2 per second).

Maybe you could limit the number of times per minute the user can execute actions. Store some kind of "time of last request" object in the user's session and if the last action was less that x seconds ago then just sleep for a while. --
