Alain,
I see, that makes sense.

a normal number of documents, at the usual rate of human
activity (let's say, as high as a dozen of articles within a
few minutes) is allowed, of course - although sometimes it
feels like the publisher would be so glad if they could
erase their Sacred Intellectual Property from your brain
immediately afterwards (but that's not the point here). On
another hand, my best guess is that the publishers would
strongly oppose systematically downloading the PDFs relevant
to a given search, which could mean thousands of articles!
