Greetings, I want to read all tweets of a person: 3200 (allowed) following rate limits. I am using http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.format. I increment attr page after each call to accomodate 3200 odd tweets and count remaining @ 200. Unfortunately after 1st call (which always succeeds ) I get HTTP 503 errors :( without fail.
I checked up my rate_limit_status - it returns <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <hash> <reset-time-in-seconds type="integer">1262603748</reset-time-in- seconds> <remaining-hits type="integer">100</remaining-hits> <reset-time type="datetime">2010-01-04T11:15:48+00:00</reset-time> <hourly-limit type="integer">150</hourly-limit> </hash> I can't understand why do I get 503 errors when I still have 100 odd hits remaining :(. regards Govind
