get all image sizes flickr api

Question

I want to get a list of all image sizes for a single flickr image and I need to be able to get the url of the resized images, all in json format.

I would like to get something like this

[
 {width:200,height:200,url:"http://flickr.com/200ximage.jpg"}
,{width:400,height:400,url:"http://flickr.com/400ximage.jpg"}
,{width:600,height:600,url:"http://flickr.com/600ximage.jpg"}
,{width:800,height:800,url:"http://flickr.com/800ximage.jpg"}
]

How do I construct the url? I can't find any comprehensible guide anywhere!!!!

This is for a responsive image script btw
