I am far from being a javascript expert, but shouldn't it be
encodeURIComponent(location.href) ? It looks like you're sending the
whole content of the page as a URI parameter, which possibly trips up
the validator.

If the fix suggested above does not have any effect, could you test
your code on the following instance of the validator?

It is our lastest development version, and it includes a number of
recent bug fixes to the API.
Thank you.
