iTunes Lookup API Returning Strings Instead of Integers

Since Oct 30th 2018 I'm seeing different data types returned for certain fields in the iTunes lookup API.


If I take the example from https://affiliate.itunes.apple.com/resources/documentation/itunes-store-web-service-search-api/ to get all albums for Jack Johnson:


https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=909253&entity=album


There is a sample json showing collectionId and trackId as Integers.

But the API is currently returning them as Strings!


I don't see any mention of changes related to this.


Is anyone else seeing this?
