Here's an decent explanation of why you JavaScript solution will not 
work:

The same origin policy will prevent your did sending a request directly 
to another domain. Look into JSONP for a workaround to the same origin 
policy.

You should, however, be able to send the request from the server side 
using Ruby.

See open-uri for more details. Here's one example that I found via 
Google:
