Does Dropbox OAuth have a Rate Limit?

I am doing CI automation testing and using Dropbox for archiving documents. The test begins by performing OAuth authentication with static page objects: Login, Confirmation, Consent. This afternoon, for the first time, CI testing was presented with a new OAuth authentication page: "Verification you are a person" captica. No way will the CI testing handle this captica.

Verification captica

So, curious:

  1. Is there a rate limit for doing OAuth?
  2. Is there a way to determine OAuth has reached it rate limit without checking page contains object header "Verification"?

Verification initial page
