A big part of LinkedIn's business is providing tools for recruiters to search the database of profiles and extract information, essentially, your extension is compromising their core revenue-generating product and you're loudly announcing it on your website. I am not a lawyer so take this with a grain of salt, but if you remove all reference to LinkedIn from your website immediately (and maybe go as far as blocking it for use on LinkedIn) you should be fine.
And for future reference, be very careful when promoting the way that people are using your product: plausible deniability is your friend.

After looking at the examples on the site, I'm kinda surprised LinkedIn is the only company that's complaining. It'd be safer to make some leading suggestions to get people thinking of all the interesting things they could automate, but without ever using names, company specific-terminology, etc. Otherwise this arguably isn't a general purpose tool, it's advertising specific features.
