First you don't have to use WTF to get assistance on the site. I'm happy to help.

The 503 error does happen occasionally to people late at night when we are doing database backups. Once you get it it is something that gets cached in your browser. If you purge the cache of your browser this should resolve the problem. Also, make sure that you don't have some type of caching firewall. If so, make sure you purge that as well.

Thanks!

Mark
