Yeah, we've been seeing similar issues for awe.sm-powered links (on
>400 domains).

It would seem that Twitter's counter is only indexing *some* redirect
URLs. There are other folks complaining about this issue on this

http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_thread/thread/ed8bf9ded82fd5ca

Still waiting on official acknowledgment from Twitter, but it's a real
issue being experienced by a bunch of publishers trying to use their
own custom redirect links.
