Basically what you're looking for is something to manage rate limiting or flood control.

I wrote a little code snippet up that shows the code we are using to manage flood control. We use Redis, a persistent caching mechanism. You can alternatively use Memcached to achieve something very similar.

Another thought, but this will cost you some money if you're not already a Cloudflare subscriber. If you use Cloudflare CDN, they have a pay-per-use frequency capping feature.
