JSON error for movie search

Hi,
ever since yesterday something changed for the movie search http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie? call where it's returning a non-valid json. I've ran it through a json validator and the problem seems to be pointing to vote average that has "nan" in it. Can please fix it? thanks! A simple search for superman and batman will see this error.
Parse error on line 61: ... "vote_average": nan, "vo -----------------------^ Expecting 'STRING', 'NUMBER', 'NULL', 'TRUE', 'FALSE', '{', '['
