You'll find that for outgoing traffic the server will pick the standard IP address, not the one used by the website.
Try authenticating the requests, it helps. Alternatively, use code to use the right IP address.

My rate limit status keeps decreasing to 0 even though as far as I can tell I am only making 24 requests per hour. I have a simple PHP web page that calls this 24 times per hour using CURL: http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?count=1&screen_name={user_name_here} Responses are cached and logged so a) I shouldn't go over the limit and b) I can track exactly when the calls are made and confirm my PHP script is only making 24 requests per hour. For some reason the rate limit status decreases to 0 after about half an hour. Any ideas what I can be doing wrong or if the rate limit can be decreased by something else other than my script. My script is on a web site with a dedicated IP address.
