I can open https://blockchain.info/q/getblockcount in my browser, but a program I made cannot access it.

The program is supposed to check the blockchain once every 60 seconds. If I cannot access blockchain.info, is there another source?

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Blockchain.info worked for a while this morning, but my robot is blocked again. Note that I only make one request every 30 seconds - no more.

All I would need is actually just the last block, raw from the blockchain would do, but stability is very important. Where else can I find this?

You might want to try this too:

https://api.blockcypher.com/v1/btc/main

There are more APIs to retrieve blocks, transactions, addresses, etc. See:
