I'm trying to develop a twitter app that checks if someone is a spammer. I have the userid, but to get the screenname I have to call http://twitter.com/users/show.xml?id=<userid> which causes a limit request. Once I have the screen name I could get the data I need without a limit request. Does anyone know a way to get the screen name from a user Id without incurring a rate limit charge?
