Certain get request not working in workers. but works in browser

Well, at some point the request might return a TLS error, even from the browser (try hard-refreshing multiple times). So maybe it's not your problem. You can put a retry on fetch in case of such error.

Suggestion for rate limiting

the in-memory state can help you (a) assuming that each api key will connect to the same edge node (not always true), and (b) you will not allow bursts, and so that, by enforcing the X/sec you will be also enforcing the Y/hour. Otherwise, you would need a persistent store.

curl -XGET returns the json data and it sends these request headers:

> Accept: */*

Suggestion for rate limiting

can you give more details of the type of rate-limiting you want to implement? e.g. "for every ip_address, allow X requests per Y timeframe". The solution really depends, because if you want to impose a 50 reqs/second limitation (wild example) there is no reason to use anything other than worker's memory state (and accept the evictions as the only con). On the other hand, if you would like to impose a rule like "allow X requests per day on /blog", this is a static rule that would fit in every plan's allowance of CF rate limiting rules, so no-code at all.

Worker refusing to recognize KV namespace even after binding

Based on the naming of the KV, I would suggest you switch to DOs instead, as KVs are eventually consistent and cannot be used for the purpose of "counting" hits.
