When you do a simple GET request like that:

RestClient.get 'http://example.com/'

it will result in this request beeing sent to www.example.com:

GET / HTTP/1.1
Accept: */*; q=0.5, application/xml
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
Host: www.example.com

The application/xml accept header might lead to unexpected results on your server. You can force REST Client to ask the server for default text/html that way:

RestClient.get(site, {:accept => :html})
