if someone had a web-service but did not set header Allow-Access-Control-Origin:*

Then how exactly do I make the request and get the resource?

http://www.random.org/clients/http/ states a web service that can be called as follows: http://www.random.org/integers/?num=10&min=1&max=6&col=1&base=10&format=plain&rnd=new

When I tried to access it through XHR I had Origin null is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin.

I know this is normal, I just want to know how exactly did the creators of the API expect me to call it if they did not set those headers appropriately?

Or is there anyway around it?

    Make the request from a machine you control (i.e. your server) and not one that you don’t (i.e. your visitor’s browser)
