Google T&C?

    I have been using the keyword tool for a while and find it extremely useful.
    However, I now read in the google T&C the following:

    http://www.google.com/terms_of_service.html


    ################## GOOGLE START ##################
    No Automated Querying
    You may not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system without
    express permission in advance from Google. Note that "sending automated
    queries" includes, among other things:

    using any software which sends queries to Google to determine how a website
    or webpage "ranks" on Google for various queries;
    "meta-searching" Google; and
    performing "offline" searches on Google.

    ################## GOOGLE END ####################

    Is it still ok to use the tools?

    Furthermore, google states, not to use the API commercially. What exactly does that mean?

    We use the Google API for the queries, so it is ok.
