Loading RSS feed with AJAX: alternatives to Google Feed API?

I've been using the Google Feed API to load RSS feeds, but it looks like Google has shut down the API. For instance, when I try to load the New York Times RSS feed at http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/feed/load?v=1.0&num=1000&q=http%3A%2F%2Frss.nytimes.com%2Fservices%2Fxml%2Frss%2Fnyt%2FHomePage.xml, I get this response:

{"responseData": null, "responseDetails": "This API is no longer available.", "responseStatus": 403}

Are there any viable alternatives?

Use Yahoo's YQL API:

select * from xml where url = 'https://news.ycombinator.com/rss'

You can request a JSONP feed by adding a callback parameter to the url

https://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?q=select%20*%20from%20xml%20where%20url%20%3D%20'https%3A%2F%2Fnews.ycombinator.com%2Frss'&format=json&env=store%3A%2F%2Fdatatables.org%2Falltableswithkeys&callback=mycallback
