Ah, interesting. Nice catch. We could spoof a user agent so we look like a browser. We should also consider switching to PhantomJS or Selenium then.

User agents is an easy fix. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10606133/how-to-send-user-agent-in-requests-library-in-python

Darn. I guess we should rewrite in PhantomJS or Selenium then.

Are we still having this problem? Is it only with search and certain pages on Quora?

This issue seems to be specific to search! All the existing functions work just fine.

Closing this because it seems like a problem with just search. Reopen if need be.
