distance

Hello;

I need to write an application which is to calculate the estimated driving distance between two UK addresses; I think I can use Google as following:

http://maps.google.com/maps/nav?q=from:London%20to:Dover

However, anyone knows what is the daily/monthly limit of querying the database from a single IP address?

I need to implement in a commercial application (freight services), is there any reliable alternative?

Development language/platform: C#, .NET
