This API no longer returns data. Seems frozen... Thanks !

This happened occasionally for brief periods of time. I think I found the reason and patched it.

The updater script has a small memory leak somewhere. Leak might be a strong word, but at any rate left alone too long it crashes for some reason. While I should carefully profile it, I have a cron job to restart it periodically which should fix it.
