It use GitHub Api v3. The rate limit is 60 requests per hour for unauthenticated requests. See https://developer.github.com/v3/#rate-limiting for details.

API call results are cached to $GH_INDEX_CACHE_DIR, which is $HOME/.cache/gh-index by default. Cache is valid for $GH_INDEX_CACHE_AGE, which is 28800000 (8hr) by default.

Don't take the results too seriously :)
