If I correctly understand you are using jQuery.ajax(). Documentation says "Data to be sent to the server. It is converted to a query string, if not already a string. It's appended to the url for GET-requests." So I think that the ajax() function is calling the URL "/pi/?pathID=somevalue". May you perhaps check the devel server output?
