In addition make sure you add the parameter include_rts=1 to the request.
The include_rts flag instructs the API to include retweets in the response.
Looking at the timeline you requested it looks as if the last 20 Tweets by that
user are retweets - which, by default, are not included in the timeline but are
included in the count.
Best,

It should be pointed out that those aren't valid API URLs..
You want to execute these requests against API.twitter.com/1/resource...
The best way to construct your URL would be like this: (it reduces ambiguity)
https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=justinbiebercount=20
Finally, we are having some strange issues with certain timelines. If you're
running into this, it means the timeline is being a bit erratic. Try
requesting a higher count, like 100. We are looking into this behavior and
hope to fix it soon.

I'm trying to access justinbieber timeline but its returning []...
I'm using this URL:
https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/justinbieber.json?count=20
If I try the timeline for other users it works fine. for example:
https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/cnn.json?count=20
Any idea why this is happening?
If I go to http://twitter.com/justinbieber it seems to be okay, but
when using
https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/justinbieber.json?count=20
it keeps returning an empty array...
