Something like this is definitely against the rules (clear statements by GMs, some linked/quoted above).
I've never actually heard of anyone being banned for this alone though. I would suspect it has to do more with what you are doing with it than that you used a macro on a programmable Razor-like mouse.
Generally speaking, if your macro is doing something that you could physically do then you're probably okay (no logic, simple key presses, etc.). If you are running the same macro while AFK then you're in big trouble.
I've known players that have used tab targeting macros on their necros, for example, while camping a ph. I suspect that if a GM comes along and questions them that they would be okay IF they are actually at their keyboard and not AFK clearing the area with their macro.
Nonetheless, please post a follow up either way to let other folks know what you got called on here.
