Hello Theodoros,

you are not doing anything wrong, and the answer is painfully simple!
Really recently the behavior of search engine have been changed through the 
option 'CFG_WEBSEARCH_DEF_RECORDS_IN_GROUPS' in the main configuration file 
which defaults to 10.
Unfortunately, this means that search engine is not reporting a comprehensive 
list of records any more as it ever did before, and this broke bibauthorid for 
it is using search engine to retrieve a comprehensive list of existing and not 
deleted records.
A patch to solve this issue is on it's way and will come to master soon, along 
with the merging algorithms and lots of other improvements.
For the moment forcing that configuration value to 0 should force search engine 
to run 'as legacy' and everything should work as expected.
Should that not be the case please let me know and we can investigate together 
what else could be wrong!
Thank you very much for your understanding,
Samuele
