User objects should have counts added to them for number of lists owned by, followed by and following the user. This does not seem to exist anywhere in the API currently, though clearly Twitter.com has access to the information (notice the counts at http://twitter.com//lists). Is this on the roadm

Agree that scrapping is a bad idea. The question is, why has this particular piece of data (list counts) been available on twitter.com since the lists rollout but exists nowhere in the API. It seems like an oversight, which is why developers are trying to be helpful by logging issues in the issue t

[twitter-dev] Rate limits for whitelisted IPs using user credentials

2010-08-29 Thread Orian Marx (@orian)
Is it possible to use a whitelisted IP to fetch data using a user's OAuth credentials without utilizing the user's 350/hr rate limit? For example, if I'm building a DM backup service, I'd like to be able to back up the user's DMs on their behalf without draining their rate limit. -- Twitter devel

How are you getting the user mentions? Is it through statuses/mentions or using search? If you're using search, each result includes a field like this: http://a3.twimg.com/profile_images/ 5/of_normal.jpg" rel="image"/> That url is a reference to the user's profile image. On Sep 2, 5:40 pm,

You can efficiently determine which lists owned by the authenticating user have a target user as a member by adding the parameter "filter_to_owned_lists=true" to :user/lists/memberships. This should probably be included in the documentation here: http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/:user/lists/membersh
