NPM Error Parsing Json, Unexpected Token

I'm trying to install grunt, but no luck.

npm install -g grunt-cli --registry http://registry.npmjs.org/

gives this error:

npm ERR! registry error parsing json
npm ERR! Darwin 14.3.0
npm ERR! argv "node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "install" "-g" "grunt-cli" "--registry" "http://registry.npmjs.org/"
npm ERR! node v0.12.4
npm ERR! npm  v2.10.1
npm ERR! Unexpected token <
npm ERR! <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

npm ERR! </head><body>
npm ERR! <h1>Not Found</h1>
npm ERR! <p>The requested URL /grunt-cli was not found on this server.</p>
npm ERR! </body></html>

What could be wrong?

This did it for me, although not sure why.

npm config rm proxy
npm config rm https-proxy
