I agree this isn't clear in the docs so i'll get onto updating them.
The structure for this URL is:
POST /1/:user/:list_id/subscribers.{format}
where:
:user is the user_id or screen_name of the user who owns the list
:list_id is the ID or slug for the list owned by :user. This isn't
necessarily the display name of the list.
The method will then subscribe the user who you are authenticating as
to the list of subscribers.
For example if I want to subscribe to the world-leaders list created
by the @verified account I would use:
POST /1/verified/world-leaders/subscribers.json
On success the method will return the details of of the list subscribed to.
Hope that helps
Matt

Try screen_name instead of userid. I'm not certain but it rings a bell. Not
that it shouldn't work with id, of course.

Using oAuth I am making the following call:
POST /1/userid/3968155/subscribers.json
where userid is the user whose oAuth tokens are in use and 3968155 is
the id of the list i'm trying to subscribe to
Twitter returns a stock 404 result
I've even tried it with the slug id of the list, same result. I also
know I have a valid oAuth environment because i'm getting the list
information from a previous valid call to /1/userid/lists/
subscriptions.json and I always do /1/account/verify_credentials.json
when i'm working on the library code.
any clues?
thanks
