Consider the requestAnimationFrame API. It will give you a 60hz timer (even higher on high refresh rate displays) but is used for a ton of animation related tasks as well as games. That said it effectively can be used as a timer which in this case would likely be precise enough.

What do you do in the case where a ton of website's use this API for legitimate animations?
