Still waiting for a response here. I tried a query with the Twitter Advanced Search tool: http://search.twitter.com/search?q=&ands=Allofthesewords&phrase=Thisexactphrase&ors=Anyofthesewords¬s=Noneofthesewords&tag=Thishashtag〈=en&from=leonspencer&to=leonspencer&ref=leonspencer&near=&within=15&units=mi&since=2009-10-07&until=2009-10-18&rpp=15
When I strip away the parameter names and operators, this is the values stringed together: AllofthesewordsThisexactphraseAnyofthesewordsNoneofthesewordsThishashtagenleonspencerleonspencerleonspencer15mi2009-10-072009-10-1815 Length is at 133 but still getting error from the advanced search: http://search.twitter.com/search?q=&ands=Allofthesewords&phrase=Thisexactphrase&ors=Anyofthesewords¬s=Noneofthesewords&tag=Thishashtag〈=en&from=leonspencer&to=leonspencer&ref=leonspencer&near=&within=15&units=mi&since=2009-10-07&until=2009-10-18&rpp=15 "Sorry, your query cannot be more than 140 characters long (it is 161 characters).
