Thanks for highlighting that this isn't clear. We'll get onto clarifying how
count works and update the docs as soon as possible.
In the meantime this is how count works:
The count parameter tells the API request the maximum number of Tweets to
return. The number of Tweets may not be exactly equal
If you want 20, request say 24 and discard the excess?
Not an expert on the API at all,

Hi,
Thanks for your replies.
@John: I check the documentation (http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/
statuses/user_timeline), and there says:
Count
'Specifies the number of records to retrieve. Must be less than or
equal to 200. '
Tell me, f you read this, you associate the Cout option to a 'no more
t
Yes. You can't trust anything on twitter. Hope for good, valid results, prepare
for anything else.

This means that the count property is not something that you can

Hi Luis,
yes, that's what I mean. You can either get the second page, or just request
some more, as in:

Hi Pascal,
Thanks for your reply.
What you mean with cursors?
I have a way to solve this problem:
1- get the home_timeline
2- count the number of tweets got from (1) and if length < 20 I do
another home_timeline call with page=2
I think this might work. The problem is, I need to do 2 call to
Tw
