Presumably by routing the request through like www.google.com/pagegrabber.php?url=http://www.example.com
Basically like
<?php
echo file_get_contents($_GET['url']);
?>
Except Google has been known to like, parse javascript on pages and stuff too, but that's just the basic idea of the script.
And requesting that file instead of http://www.example.com
There is no cross-domain policy with php

Thanks Meredith, that's kind of what I suspected and but with my noobish PHP skills I still hit request limit. But what you say about javascript makes a lot of sense to me and confirms some things I just read.
A post on stackoverflow says that they inject a script tag into the dom to handle their 'get' functions. Since script tags don't apply to same origin policy I can see how that would work. It also explains why they don't hit a request limit since everything is running within the scope of the page (like Blasty's GE id example).
The way I understand it is basically the server doesn't reject requests that the page is dishing out. Even if those request originated elsewhere it doesn't matter because they are now a part of the dom and the server can't see modifications made to the dom.
If it's correct it's kind of a crude method, but definitely effective. There are still some things I'm not sure about. But with what you said and what I read I have a basic idea of what's happening
