[Developers] different search results from freebase & api

Dear All,

When I played with freebase data and API, I found I could find search
results when I used search query of "Louise Ciccone Ritchie" on web page (
http://www.freebase.com/search?limit=30&start=0&query=Louise+Ciccone+Ritchie).
But I failed  at any results when I used MQL query (
http://www.freebase.com/api/service/mqlread?queries={%22item%22:{%22query%22:{%22name%22:%22Louise%20Ciccone%20Ritchie%22,%22type%22:[]}}}
)

Could anybody tell me the "secret"? I didn't correctly write MQL query or
Mediapedia does more work in "Fuzzy" search part, that is, it provides some
methods to directly map Louise Ciccone Ritchie to Madonna?

Thank you very much!

Best,
