Feedburner API returning 0

Ever used feedburner API to get the number of subscribers against a URL but keep getting 0 for all sites? I had this issue a while ago and didn't find a proper reasoning why was this happening or how to fix it but I found a crack to it.


If you have such an issue like getting 0 against a feedburner url with a link like this: https://feedburner.google.com/api/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData?uri=http://feeds.feedburner.com/disparatereflections
Trying adding yesterday's date to it and you will get the value  https://feedburner.google.com/api/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData?uri=http://feeds2.feedburner.com/disparatereflections&dates=2012-01-01,2012-03-02

Hope that helps
