Could you allow Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) for the new API?
See http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/file/xhr2/#toc-cors for details.

Setting the header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *" will allow Ajax requests from scripts on other domains to pull data from the API. That way one could make a HTML5 'app' that doesn't have to rely on a server to play request proxy. This also so users don't have to trust the developer not to log anything with such a 'proxy'.
