Retrofit, top level json object changes?

I'm using Retrofit to make a few api calls. For a particular endpoint, the returned json looks a bit like this:

Endpoint: api.example.com/1.0/userinfo?userid=7

The returned response looks a bit like this:

{
    "7":{
        "name":"george",
        "age"="32"
        }

}

Basically, the top level object is whatever number gets passed into the url parameter (in this example 7).

So when creating my Java objects to model this response, how do I model this top level object so that even if the name changes it maps properly when using gson?

Interface:

@Get
Call<Map<String,User>> getUserInfo(@Url String url);

Usages:

Map<String,User> response =getUserInfo("http://api.example.com/1.0/userinfo?userid=7");
User user = response.get("7");

"7" is userid=?

Interface:

@Get("1.0/userinfo")
Call<Map<String,User>> getUserInfo(@Query("userid")String userid);

Usages:

String userId = "7";
Map<String,User> response = Retrofit.Builder().baseUrl("http://api.example.com").create(ApiService.class).getUserInfo(userId).execute();
User user = response.get(userId);`
