Hi Jonas,
It is not safe to use and will go away at some point. It was
added for questionable reasons and has never been linked to or
documented. Having said that I don't remove it because people have
changed .atom to .rss and started relying on it. Please don't use it
since it has some known bugs and less data than the atom version
(thank you RSS spec for not having a link with a rel attribute).
Thanks;

Hi,
I was using the search.atom command and just happened to try
search.rss. I was surprised that this works because I didn't see it
documented in the api docs. Is search.rss documented anywhere? Is it
safe to use?
I noticed two problem with search.rss.
1) When since= is empty the returned rss always contains a
twitter:warning element.
2) When near= is not empty (for instance near=NYC) I always get a 406
http error.
Thanks,
Jonas
