I'm trying to use the Search API on a particular user. This user has tweets available, but the API returns 0 results. (I'm making the call in JSON, but for demonstration purposes the ATOM feed should work)
Works: http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=from:eightlines&rpp=1&callback=? Doesn't Work: http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=from:80s&rpp=1&callback=? User 80s content is present: http://twitter.com/80s and the feed is public. Initially a colleague suggested it was because the username began with a number, but this doesn't seem to be the issue. We've also tried to get the status of the user, but that requires authentication which we'd prefer not to do. I haven't been able to find anything in the API docs that would shed light on the situation. Am I missing something simple? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
