Example:

http://seeclickfix.com/api/issues.json?at=New+Haven,+CT&zoom=10&start=24&end=0&page=1&num_results=5&sort=issues.created_at

This query says show me all issues within “New Haven, CT” from a zoom level of 10. Limit the results by issues updated in the last 24 hours and only the last 5 created.

Pagination

Data is returned in chunks of num_results. You can increment the page parameter to get the next group of results. If page exceeds the total number of pages the result will be an empty array. For example, say you want 10,000 results of graffiti. You can make 10 requests with page from 1 to 10 and num_results = 1000.
