How many bit.ly links can I create per account

Question

I have searched the bitly API documentation for limits, and I only see information about rate limits, i.e. the amount of people that can visit your short link in a given period of time (http://dev.bitly.com/rate_limiting.html).

Id like to know if there is a limit to how many short links I can create via the API? a thousand? a million? gazillion?

"If you're a high-volume user of the bitly API, please contact us at api@bitly.com to discuss your options." I would do that if you're concerned about creating too many. — John Sheehan, Sep 17 '13 at 22:43
This question appears to be off-topic because it is about a support issue, not programming. — Bill the Lizard, Dec 29 '14 at 17:01
So questions about apis and web services are about support and not programming? — tomwoods, Dec 31 '14 at 15:31

As suggested by Runscope, I contacted api@bitly.com and they responded quickly as follows:

"There's no limit on the number of short links you can create. The rate limits are per-hour and per-minute bursts, but you can keep shortening URLs forever."

Nice.
