WordPress has some issues with "for" parameter encoded in final URL fo some reason. So the request looks like this: http://public-api.wordpress.com/oembed/1.0/?format=json&url=http%3A%2F%2Frodp.wordpress.com%2F2013%2F02%2F27%2Fon-scorpions-and-frogs%2F&for=wpcom-auto-discovery But the last "for" parameter should be a part of API URL, not as part of blog post URL, otherwise WP returns 501. Embed.ly handles this flawlessly at least..

Is this a bug on our side? Could we be doing this right according to the spec? Or should this rather be fixed at Wordpress?

@astro hi, I hardly can comment on this as it's been a year since I reported this issue. It might be that this issue does not exist anymore...

Closing due to absence of interest in proceeding with this PR.
