Just to close this question: I've searched this forum for similar questions and it appears that this is the expected behaviour. As I was testing my app using a viewer user that didn't had the app installed, Orkut returned an null for viewer data, due to privacy issues, i believe.
I spite I agree that the viewer data should be protected from non- installed apps, It's strange that the method hadError() wasn't used to provide a better error handling. Best regards, Alex.
