Byteblocks, Try using the "page" and "rpp" parameters in addition to
the "since" parameter:
# rpp: Optional. The number of tweets to return per page, up to a max
of 100.
* Example: http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=devo&rpp=15
# page: Optional. The page number (starting at 1) to return, up to a
max of roughly 1500 results (based on rpp * page. Note: there are
pagination limits.
* Example: http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=devo&rpp=15&page=2
