I'm not sure if it's related to this push, but I've started to get
several user objects back with no statuses_updates.

This is a somewhat blocking bug for TweetStats as I try to verify they
have tweets while verifying the account. Though I can just try to
enumerate through and will probably have to do an emergency update to
do so.

here's a sample user object I'm getting back:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<user>
  <id>20176857</id>
  <name>Jonny Beasley</name>
  <screen_name>ccfcrule</screen_name>
  <location></location>
  <description></description>
