When I send the following query
http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/local?v=1.0&q=coffee%20New%20York%20NY
using c# WebClient.DownloadString function or ordinary web browser I get JSON data which is different from data for the same query using JavaScript and Google AJAX Search API.
From REST service I get the following url field
http://www.google.com/maps/place?source003duds0026q003dcoffee0026cid003d13245583795745066822
but from JavaScript query I get this url field
http://www.google.com/maps/place?source=uds&q=coffee&cid=13245583795745066822
The problem with REST service answer is that the url it gives points to a web page with error message "We currently do not support the location".
What am I doing wrong?
