[twitter-dev] Handling rate limit

[Guru]

Hi,
In my application I will recieve 100's of statusId as input and with
the statusId I need to find the user who posted it and other
information about the status.
So, I use
postedToAccScName = vzTwitter.showStatus
(lMessageSourceId).getScreenName();
to get the screenName
Unfortunately, because of api limit. I encounter rate limit exception
very soon.
Is there any other way to handle this?

Thanks,
Guru
