[Developers] query API - overuse and sanctions?

[Faye Harris]

Hi Michael,

This works:

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,%22a:name%22:null,%22id%22%20:%20null}}

Your query has two "name:value" pairs. Add an arbitrary property prefix 
to the second one, so the new query is:

{"query":{"limit":1,"type" :"/people/person","name":"Samuel 
Adams","a:name":null,"id" : null}}
