Hi there, this might be obvious to everybody working longer with the API but to me its a bit unclear:
If I call rate_limit_status from a script that I registered at http://twitter.com/oauth and using OAuth I get 20000 API calls per hour as as base for my requests. If I call rate_limit_status from a not registered script with username/ password (Basic Auth) I get 150 API calls per hours as a base for the authenticated user. As far as I understand the documentation at http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Twitter-REST-API-Method:-account%C2%A0rate_limit_status I would expect the response of rate_limit_status via OAuth to be based on the users calls (ie. returning 150 calls per hours with how many calls are left). But: if I send the request authenticated with token and secret via OAuth I always get a response based on 20000 calls per hour. Is that right? Thanks, Patrick
