2010-10-25 Thread Christian Fazzini
What API method should I use to search for users based on screen name
or name?

Currently, the API only offers search by screen name and twitter id...

You can use followers/ids friends/ids and specify a user -
You can do statuses/followers/ to grab s bunch of metadata either by  
id_str or screen_name


with both provide obviously supply the id or screen_name and other  
options accordingly.
