[Developers] query API - overuse and sanctions?

Hi Michael,

You have "name" in there twice, as "Samuel Adams" first and then null. Looks like null is winning. Try:

http://www.freebase.com/api/service/mqlread?query={%22query%22:{%22limit%22:1,%22type%22%20:%22/people/person%22,%22name%22:%22Samuel%20Adams%22,%22id%22%20:%20null}}

Thanks for the numbers. 

As for the query, I just tried the above on a different computer and good ol' Jack Abramoff came back ... (Note, it's the mqlread service and not the queryeditor as in your link)

Looks OK to me: http://www.freebase.com/app/queryeditor?q={%22limit 
%22%3A%201%2C%20%22type%22%3A%20%22%2Fpeople%2Fperson%22%2C%20%22name 
%22%3A%20%22Samuel%20Adams%22%2C%20%22ns0%3Aname%22%3A%20null%2C 
%20%22id%22%3A%20null%20} 

Wrt API overuse, just FYI, our limit is 100,000 queries per day. "A 
few thousand" shouldn't affect you.
