The problem is, that it still requires an address (be it tor or IP). Even if you run the script locally, there is still a need to communicate input and output. So people can just ddos that page.

Works great for combating human spam though. You tend to behave better if your login took half a day to get and expires quickly when not used. Plus build in cool down time after getting banned.
