Wolfram Alpha API for JSON response

I am using Wolfram Alpha Web API for my project which returns an XML response by default. Does Wolfram Alpha support JSON response? If so, what parameter will I need to pass to my web api to make it return a JSON response rather than an XML?

Could you please provide an example? W|A returns a xml file and you can use python and other bindings to parse the xml file on your local machine.

The WolframAlpha API documentation has a section called “[Summary of Output Formats][1]”.

The result of a call to the API is always an XML document, with each pod and/or subpod represented in one or more of the following formats.

So while the different pods support different formats, the API always returns an XML document.
