We're trying to gather meaningful statistics about Twitter favorites, which means we have to crawl a high number of profiles and, worse, a high number of people's favorites' pages. The latter also has to be done regularly to update the statistics.
Currently, the /favorites method only always returns 20 favorites per page. It would be useful for our app, and I assume for other apps as well, if the /favorites method also accepted the ?count parameter. From our preliminary testing, few users give more than 150 favs per month, so the max count of 200 should be sufficient to cut down our API usage five- to sixfold. Please star issue 539 if you support this: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/detail?id=539 Regards, Matt
