Check for obvious stuff: Is your API KEY correct? Are you behind a firewall (i.e. can you ping api-endpoint.mta.info)? Try it again...it's possible the MTA API service was down at the time you tried (not likely... but I've seen it before).

Ok, looking more closely at your error output, it looks like you're getting an error with a unicode character FEFF which is "zero-width unbreakable space." Double check there is nothing weird in your apikey, make sure the last character in the apikey is the last character in the file.
