This doesn't appear to work anymore :/, returning html error 400, with the exact code copy, pasted and checked.

Thank you so much for providing this. It works great for 85% of the users in our db. I checked a handful of the users it failed on and they all seem to have 1 thing in common. They're all usernames that have been renamed.

EDIT: After checking over the mojang web api for acquiring UUIDs i see that the bulk retrieve method isn't intended to lookup former names. If a username fails in the bulk retrive then i just request it individually with the &at=0 query string:
https://api.mojang.com/users/profiles/minecraft/player&at=0

This works great for me as it only retruns the original uuid of that account. If you have usernames that have possibly been renamed and then acquired by a different uuid then you'll need to make use of the name history method in conjunction with the &at= method. Be aware of the request limit of 600 per 10 minutes (1 per second).
