Quoting Cameron Kaiser <spec...@floodgap.com>:
I'm being locked out on my account using the API and I'm seeing
reports from others. At the moment making a request to
http://api.twitter.com/version/account/rate_limit_status.json comes
back saying I have 8 calls left and it will be reset at 07:54, but the
time is currently 13:18!
The time for the reset has been the same since at least 8am.
Confirming. This seems to have started last night.
I saw something similar - erratic behavior when non-authenticated.
Normally it says 75 calls per hour, number of calls left and a fair
amount of time until reset. But sometimes it jumps down to one second
left and stays there, eventually causing a hard rate limit. I haven't
tried this morning - I can try again in about two hours.
