i think you're referring to from_user_id which shows up in the search API --
unfortunately, we haven't yet rectified our user IDs between search and REST

On a per tweet basis we can get:
"from_user_id":2674844
Is this the same as 'id' for a user? If not, what's the quickest way
to get one from the other?
I notice some methods can take either user_id OR id, and was wondering
what the difference is?
Finally, does followers/ids return user_id or id?
