[twitter-dev] Any idea to minimize my request number?

[Jean-Yves Kiger]

Hi everyone,

Here is my project:
I would like to make a java programm wich would store as many tweets
as possible about one subject using the search API.  And once it is
done, i would like to get basic informations about their posters, such
as their number of followers, number of tweets and so on. But for that
purpose i will have to make one request like that

http://api.twitter.com/1/users/show.json?screen_name=SCREEN_NAME_STR

for each individual poster, wich will surely reaches the rate
limitation before i could store all the informations i want.
I dont find these informations in the HTML code of the homepage of
each users, so i think i will have to get them through the REST API.

Do you have any idea to get the informations i want to get without
overflow the limitation?

Thanks for reading, and pardon my english.

Hi,

You may find better results using the Streaming API instead of the Search
API: https://dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api

Also, if you did have to perform bulk lookups of multiple users, the
users/lookup API is superior in that you can perform 80-100 user lookups in
a single call: https://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/users/lookup

Does anyone have any idea why the update background image just stopped

I'd heard something about max upload size being way down ... but
that's anecdotal and perhaps unrelated ...
