Having issues trying to use a jquery script to redirect my tumblr homepage

    I'm using the code below to redirect my Tumblr homepage to my latest post.

    <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
    $.getJSON('http://mydomain.tumblr.com/api/read/json?callback=?', function(result) {
    window.location.href = result.posts[0].url;
    });
    });
    </script>

    I'm having two problems with it. First, it doesn't redirect instantly, it loads my homepage and then changes the URL, even though I've placed it above my <head> tag. Then when it does redirect it starts refreshing every few seconds. Thanks in advance for any help.
