Taylor, thanks for the quick reply. Tweet "id":25330325246 shows up in http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=newtwitter&result_type=popular but it's not in http://search.twitter.com/search?tag=newtwitter&from=toptweets. Here are the metadata fields: "metadata":{"recent_retweets": 1000,"result_type":"popular"} Wondering is this a latency issue? Or maybe the popular tweets is only inspecting into a fix sized time window?
More context: our use case is to provide a list of top tweets for a large conference. So that the attendees can hop in and check out which new tweets they should pay attention to without spending too much time reading through tweets.
