API
---

There one main API endpoint.

* /v1/ids
  
  Takes a JSON document with fields "hook", "ids", "filter".

"hook" is a Webhook to return additional results "later".
  
  "filter" is a filter for the results. Current values include:
  
  * "pubsub": only accounts that provide PubSubHubbub-enabled feeds

"ids" is an array of identifier strings. Identifiers can be:
  
  * An URL like "http://tantek.com"
  * An email address like "evan@status.net"
  
  Notable kinds of URLs are:
  
  * Twitter profile URL like "https://twitter.com/evanpro"
  * Facebook profile URL like "http://facebook.com/evan.prodromou"
  * Google+ profile URL like "https://plus.google.com/104323674441008487802/posts"

Returns a JSON document that maps those identifiers to known
  accounts for the same user.
  
  Example:
  
      {
          "hook": "http://example.com/search-results/SOMETHINGUNIQUE",
          "filter": "pubsub",
          "ids": [
              "@t",
              "evan@status.net",
              "http://facebook.com/faddah",
              "https://plus.google.com/113651174506128852447/posts",
              "Jan-Christoph Borchardt"
          ]
      }
  
  returns
  
      {
          "@t": ["http://tantek.com/"],
          "evan@status.net": ["http://identi.ca/evan", "http://evanpro.tumblr.com/"],
          "http://facebook.com/faddah": [],
          "https://plus.google.com/113651174506128852447/posts": ["http://blog.romeda.org/"],
          "Jan-Christoph Borchardt": ["https://joindiaspora.com/u/jancborchardt"]
      }

Note: every ID is returned, even if we don't have info on it.
  
  Every result would return as an array, even if there's only one element.
