I did have similar problems, occasionally I still get some problems
with this though.

oAuth still down for me though.  Personally I hope the little 
that caused this gets brought to justice.

 Seems like calls to account/rate_limit_status are throwing errors
 (presumably all unauthenticated calls are too), is this due to the
 ddos attack? If so when/will they be back up again?

Without damages, it's hard to pursue this kind of case. With no, or a
limited, revenue model, it's tough to show damages ... but depending on the
resources used to bring the ddos, maybe electronic trespass or
botnet-related charges may, eventually, some day, years down the road, be
filed ...
