Incomplete list of friends being returned

2008-12-10 Thread Carter Rabasa

I am currently developing an application to bridge Twitter and
FriendFeed (http://twitter2ff.appspot.com) and I am having a problem
retrieving a complete list of a user's friends.

For example, using the command-line (curl), I retrieved all the
friends for davewiner.  His profile (http://twitter.com/davewiner)
indicates he has 741 friends.  When I count the number of screen_names
returned (over 8 pages of results) I only see 733 friends.

I've double-checked this with several other public accounts. Any
ideas?

Thanks,
Carter Rabasa

I doubt it, because I am authenticating with the user's credentials.
You'd think the authenticated user would get a complete list of their
friends.

 Perhaps it is not returning protected users?
