After fixing a tabbing bug in your cacheHits() function, everything loaded fine 
and the callback function was called as it should be.  The callback didn't 
actually work on my system, but that is a different problem.  Make sure that 
you don't have any python syntax errors in your module.  Otherwise the module 
won't load.
