No JSON object could be decoded

Hi Swissky!
Thanks for the awesome tool, unfortunately I've struggling with JSON parse error like:

/> ./wordpresscan.py -u "http://scannedsite.org/" --random-agent
...
[!] WordPress version 4.1 identified from advanced fingerprinting
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./wordpresscan.py", line 62, in <module>

    data = json.load(data_file)

    obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/decoder.py", line 382, in raw_decode
    raise ValueError("No JSON object could be decoded")
ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded

Software obtained thru git clone https://github.com/swisskyrepo/Wordpresscan
python version: 2.7.16+
Any ideas?
