I can make this work in Python but I am struggling to replicate in Go...

In your code result is an array, but the Go library expects a slice type, so change its type. Maybe:

var result []interface{}

Thanks much @oz !!

var result []interface{} lets me get back 10 items when I request 10. Nice forward progress!

My remaining problem is to convert each item returned into type pkgInfo.
