Another thing, I notice that if use this url:
http://www.freebase.com/api/service/search?callback=jsonp1210929592444&type=%2Fcommon%2Ftopic&start=0&limit=3&prefix=iuytui
The 'iuytui' is junk and if I try it at freebase.com's auto complete search
I get no matches, yet the above search (used by freebase suggest) returns:
jsonp1210929592444({
"status": "200 OK",
"query": {
"start": 0,
"prefix": "iuytui",
"limit": 3,
"escape": "html",
"query": "",
"type": "/common/topic"
},
"code": "/api/status/ok",
"result": [
{
"name": "Race",
"image": {
"id": "/guid/9202a8c04000641f80000000049908cd"
},
"alias": [],
"article": {
"id": "/guid/9202a8c04000641f80000000001a8085"
},
"guid": "#9202a8c04000641f80000000001a807f",
"type": [
{
"id": "/common/topic",
"name": "Topic"
}
],
"id": "/guid/9202a8c04000641f80000000001a807f"
},
{
"name": "Federal Information Processing Standard",
"image": null,
"alias": [],
"article": {
"id": "/guid/9202a8c04000641f8000000000017bae"
},
"guid": "#9202a8c04000641f8000000000017ba6",
"type": [
{
"id": "/common/topic",
"name": "Topic"
}
],
"id": "/en/federal_information_processing_standard"
},
{
...
Any idea how I can fix it to return relevant suggestions like on your site
