time it has been requested." 
I think you want "successfully retrieved", not "requested". Requests can 
fail/be lost, connections can drop before the request hits the server.
The server will no doubt define success as "I sent the 200 response", and 
clients as "I *received* the 200 response and parsed it successfully", but 
(a) nothing we can do about that (b) that's life in a distributed system. 
Robust server implementations might choose to add in a time delay to allow 
for somewhat friendlier behavior, and treat this like an asynch garbage 
collection problem.

Best Regards, John
