How to clear debug tool cache data?

It seems the facebook debug tool http://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug is using a cache.

I made an update to my site but facebook debug tool is still showing up the old data.

Is their any way to force facebook to refresh its data? It has been a few days now and it seems the cache will not expire.
