Report a translation problem
Issues with the CDN, Akami, at times, to be precise.
This however isn't always the case.
I was not using the API when it happened to me. A javascript loop backfired on me and went crazy and sent steam like 400 requests in about 30 seconds lol. Happened through the browser console.
it is not a bug as such. Its intended.
It can happen randomly though its usually due to too many requests or something glitching out somewhere.
If it continues for longer then 24 hours, go to steam support and explain the problem.
Try restarting your modem/router. It might help though am unsure.
Edit: Something that just came to mind, how are you using the forums if steam blocked your IP?
not much else you can do that is recommendable.

The option exists though is hidden deeply within the support page.
