Interesting idea. Sounds like you may hit scaling issues rapidly if this gains modest popularity though, since you're tied directly to a worker pool. I see there's about 300k HITs active on MTurk at any time, so even the startup pack at 1000 requests/mo would be a significant fraction of all MTurk activity.
Would you be expanding to other crowdsourcing providers as you grow?
Edit: Wasn't paying enough attention to the math. I guess without data like HITs resolved / second, it'd be hard to estimate just how many requests could be feasibly absorbed by the workforce. The rate limits look sane enough.
