Ask HN: Is sending a lot of requests but respecting rate limits DOSing?

I made a tool that finds Gimkit game codes by requesting the check code endpoint with a random 6 digit integer on loop until it got a valid code or it got rate limited. If it stops when it gets rate limited, is it DOS?

I'm not sure of the definition, but I'd not be surprised if your IP gets banned.
