The datasheet says 1.25mm pitch, very close to 0.05" but different enough to cause trouble with a real 0.05" pitch connector. My guess would be a MOLEX PicoBlade 1.25mm connector, probably part number 51021-0500 http://www.mouser.com/catalog/632/1277.pdf The picture of the connector seems like it should plug in nicely with the outline of the connector in the datasheet. You'll need some female crimps too either part number 50058-8000 or 50079-8000 depending on the size of wire you will be using. Looks like about 37 cents for the connector and about a quarter for the 5 crimps, but I'd order some extra crimps just in case of accidents during crimping.
