lib seems to be broken

[phdowling]

I'm trying out this simple example:

>>> import spotlight
>>> SPOTLIGHT_URL = "http://spotlight.sztaki.hu:2222/rest/annotate"
>>> annotations = spotlight.annotate(SPOTLIGHT_URL, "President Obama", confidence=0.4, support=20)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/spotlight/__init__.py", line 161, in annotate
    response.raise_for_status()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/requests/models.py", line 840, in raise_for_status
    raise HTTPError(http_error_msg, response=self)
requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 400 Client Error: Bad Request for url: http://spotlight.sztaki.hu:2222/rest/annotate

The same happens for my own installation of spotlight. Are we sending out an incompatible request?
