Just noticed you're not including retweets (include_rts parameter). The "count" parameter specifies the number of Tweets to retrieve, but the number of tweets you'll receive can be lower (if they've been published by a deleted or suspended user, for example). In your case, it's because you're stripping retweets.
On your user_timeline (hope you won't tweet in the meantime): - With retweets (receiving 5 tweets. Note that 2 of them are actually retweets): https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=stevenbullen&count=5&page=3&include_entities=1&include_rts=1 - Without retweets (receiving 3 tweets because the 2 retweets have been filtered): https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=stevenbullen&count=5&page=3&include_entities=1 Hope that helps!
