Python Zillow API call

I'm trying to get the Zillow ID using the following code:

from pyzillow.pyzillow import ZillowWrapper, GetDeepSearchResults,GetUpdatedPropertyDetails
address = '1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC'
zipcode = '20006'
zillow_data = ZillowWrapper('API Key')
deep_search_response = zillow_data.get_deep_search_results(address,zipcode)
result = GetDeepSearchResults(deep_search_response)
print(result.zillow_id)

Any thoughts on why the above isn't working? Here is the error:

ZillowFail                                Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-12-7f34d0e7b6f0> in <module>()
      3 zipcode = '60053'
      4 zillow_data = ZillowWrapper('API Key')
----> 5 deep_search_response = zillow_data.get_deep_search_results(address,zipcode)
      6 result = GetDeepSearchResults(deep_search_response)
      7 print(result.zillow_id)

This looks like an issue with the Zillow API. As you can see it's failing with a requests too many redirects exception, so probably something ends up in a redirect loop on their API side:

/home/mfranzidis/pyenvs/numeric/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyzillow/pyzillow.pyc in get_data(self, url, params)
     62             requests.exceptions.TooManyRedirects,

This is not handled very well by their library which seems to throw a ZillowFail exception with an empty message in this case.
