We have a process that makes some (light) queries to batch.opensrs.net
every hour, and this is a common situation. It's down (usually with the
"Invalid private key" error) at least 5% of the time, and has been like
that for at least a year.

Perhaps it's just heavily loaded at the top of the hour, when people's
automated script might be trigged from cron jobs? I keep meaning to put
in a few minute delay to see if it improves things, but haven't gotten
around to it.
