The script uses Geocoding API V2.

There are usage limits. Maybe it is the reason why it does not work well.
Quote:Usage Limits
Use of the Google Geocoding V2 API is subject to a query limit of 15,000 geolocation requests per day. This limit is enforced to prevent abuse and/or repurposing of the Geocoding API, and this limit may be changed in the future without notice. Additionally, we enforce a request rate limit to prevent abuse of the service. If you exceed the 24-hour limit or otherwise abuse the service, the Geocoding API may stop working for you temporarily. If you continue to exceed this limit, your access to the Geocoding API may be blocked.
Note: the Geocoding API may only be used in conjunction with a Google map; geocoding results without displaying them on a map is prohibited. For complete details on allowed usage, consult the Maps API Terms of Service License Restrictions.
In V3 too.

I think it is easy to write macro in QM, without javascript, but it also may not work well because of these limits.
