com.google.gdata.util.InvalidEntryException: Bad Request

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. The error happens only for the domain avvo.com. For all the other sites we 
have tested, it worked well.
2. The code is
    BuildNewDataQueryIfNeeded();
    mDataQuery.setStartIndex(1);
    mDataQuery.setMaxResults(0);
    DataFeed dataFeed = null;
    try
    {
      dataFeed = mAnalyticsService.getFeed(mDataQuery.getUrl(), DataFeed.class);
    }
    catch(java.lang.Exception ex)
    {
      Application.Log(Level.INFO, "Error getting total number of results from Google Analytics " + mDataQuery.getUrl().toString(), ex);
      throw ex;
    }
    return dataFeed.getTotalResults();

where BuildNewDataQueryIfNeeded() builds the request from the above exception.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output is the number of items. Instead of this I get the exception.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
gdata-analytics-2.1.jar
gdata-analytics-meta-2.1.jar
gdata-core-1.0.jar
google-collect-1.0-rc1.jar
jsr305.jar

What am I doing wrong? 

Thank you for your help,
Stefan Matei
