I'm pretty sure all tweet IDs are in a single global ordering, so 1 week
ago is the same numerical ID (for the since_id) param for every user
account.
So you could post a single tweet (or similar) every day and use this to
build a date to ID mapping over time... then you'll know an ID to use
I think I spoke to soon. The statuses_count won't work in the case
when I use the since_status parameter of the timeline because I may
not wont to retrieve the whole timeline for the user but only the
statuses for the last week.
In this case I don't know how many pages are in the timeline.
Any
The users/show API includes a statuses_count field which tells you how
many tweets the user has posted
