underlying api change to https #17

The patentsview api has gone https! They've added a redirect but post parameters would get lost. See https://www.patentsview.org/community/forum/7/topic/150. Thought you'd like to know.

Thanks @mustberuss , I'll take a look

I don't know if it's related to the https change, but a user in the api's forum is having trouble getting the citation network example to work. It's trying to do a post which probably isn't working. I tried it but the api doesn't seem to be responding.

Thanks for the heads up @mustberuss . I addressed this issue and let the user know about the fix (https://community.patentsview.org/forum/7/topic/151#comment-178).

The citation network example is throwing errors again, with the development version too. Not sure if it's related to the api's recent move to beanstalk or not but wanted to point it out.

Hi @mustberuss , yeah so it looks like the API is throwing errors rated to load here and there (and also potentially implementing some kind of throttling behavior). I added a sys.sleep call in search_pv() that might help. I can build the citation network locally, now. Can you build it as well?
