IF you're talking to an HKS keyserver communication with the keyserver is via HTTP, so the error code is an HTTP code. Code 400 is "Bad Request" which according to the HTTP specification means that the "request had bad syntax or was inherently impossible to be satisfied." Who's keyserver are you using? Mine is wwwkeys.us.pgp.net and works fine with gpg.
