My config looks like this:

        "accessories": [{
            "accessory": "mqttswitch",
            "name": "mqtt_test_switch",
                "username": " ",
                "password": " ",
            "url": "localhost",
                        "caption": "Test switch MQTT",
                        "topics": {
                                "statusGet":    "test/get/sw1",
                                "statusSet":    "test/set/sw1"
                        }
        }
]

I changed the host to "mqtt://127.0.0.1", apparantly that is what you get if you don't use a correct URL
