Is there any client side limitation on API?

I know there is 40 request limit every 10 seconds for an IP Address. But let's say my user is viewing a page with around 50 movies and I want to request all of them through AJAX. Will the restriction still be imposed for the client? If yes, how do I pass the user's IP address into the API to remove the restrction for him maybe.
Thanks

Hi john1jacob,
The limit is simply imposed by IP, so if you have your client make the request instead of your server, each person making a request is the one with the limit.
The auto complete search here on the website is making direct calls to the API. I just use jQuery's standard .ajax() calls with my API key. It's a real world example of what you're talking about.
