Perform language identification

A simple HTTP service for submitting audio or text to determine the language within. For audio, the service returns a list of languages for each speech segment along with a confidence score. For text, the service returns a list of languages indentified with a confidence score for each. Data to be analyzed is provided within the body of the HTTP POST. It is important the that “Content-Type” is set correctly so that the correct engine is invoked for analysis. For audio, most popular audio and video file formats like the following are supported. mp3 - audio/mpeg, m4a - audio/m4a , ogg - audio/ogg , flac - audio/x-flac , wav - audio/x-wav or audio/wav. For text, only plain utf-8 encoded test is supported. txt - text/plain
