It seems Google introduced a required pv parameter in the call to /webstore/ajax/detail for getMeta. Strangely, the parameter must be a certain time (in seconds, not milliseconds) or a 441 error is returned and the update breaks.
However, I found that hard-coding the value (1323796576 - Tue, 13 Dec 2011 17:16:16 GMT) fixed this, but this felt like a temporary fix as this date only represents yesterday, so I've re-implemented the call to /webstore/detail in getMeta which extracts the value from the HTML, where it exists in a <script/> source URL.
Works for now at least. Until they break it again.
