Hi,

> wget -O auckland.osm
> http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.5/*[bbox=174.4,-37.2,174.9,-36.7]

Your shell tries to expand the * into a valid filename and fails.
Enclose the whole URL in quotes and the shell will let it through -
but even then it'll fail, as you have seen when using "node", because
the OsmXAPI is not operational ATM.

Bye
Frederik
