When you get a return result like that, it means that there was no data returned that matched your query. I can immediately think of two things that would cause this:

• There is no user named "Ershad" that has your application installed. Note that the name field is a full name search, so you'll need to put the person's entire name in there.
• You are querying with the wrong application API Key

I would suggest you try your query in the API Test Console. Select your application, then choose "fql.query" from the Method drop-down, and try your query there.
