The data set is listed here: https://datamarket.azure.com/dataset/mrc/microsoftacademic

It supports the Open Data Protocol. However, when I access it on Chrome, e.g., with https://api.datamarket.azure.com/Data.ashx/MRC/MicrosoftAcademic/v2/Domain?$top=2, the result is:

<m:error xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata">
<m:code/>
<m:message xml:lang="en-US">
We are currently experiencing problems with the backend database. If you continue to receive this error, please contact us (https://datamarket.azure.com/support).

</m:message>
</m:error>

Here is the returned result on IE 8:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
- <m:error xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata">
  <m:code /> 
  <m:message xml:lang="en-US">We are currently experiencing problems with the backend database. If you continue to receive this error, please contact us (https://datamarket.azure.com/support).

  </m:error> 

Did I do something wrong? Or the data set is just faulty?
