How can I call a function like: getreceivedbyaddress???
For some API calls such as getreceivedbyaddress, you have to specify which block chain (Bitcoin, Namecoin, etc.) to query in the URL. Example usage for Bitcoin:
https://hostname/abe/chain/Bitcoin/q/getreceivedbyaddress/1HZRowLTkmF6M8V11vj2dmVf2r9VK7dVfo
Namecoin example:
https://hostname/abe/chain/Namecoin/q/getreceivedbyaddress/MxT6tjJZcYZeWUGNgsAMxJ7wpDgKMdub4y
Other API calls can be used for addresses on any block chain. Example:
https://hostname/abe/q/addresstohash/1HZRowLTkmF6M8V11vj2dmVf2r9VK7dVfo
