querying www.snort.org/rule_docs/{REV}-{SID}

Hello Community,

i would like to query https://www.snort.org/rule_docs/{REV}-{SID} for meta-information about all the rules, in order to decide if the rule should be turned on or off in an environment. My trivial approach was to use python(urllib) to crawl the website and then parse for my desired information. The problem is that snort.org refuses to serve my request after more the 10 requests (HTTP 429). I have set an custom user-agent in the header of the request.

Is there another way to obtain the information under https://www.snort.org/rule_docs/{REV}-{SID} ?

best regards
Fabian
