Hi,
I want to know that how to fetch recent tweets with search API. With the search API sending request to fetch multiple users tweets but issue is that not getting recent tweets, sometimes return only 2-3 users tweet which tweet is not recent compare to other user tweet.
My query string is:
"http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=".$usernamelist."&rpp=20&show_user=false&include_entities=true&result_type=recent"
where $usernamelist = from:udaythanks+OR+from:AKParivartan+OR+from:DashingMaddy
If number of users less than 5 in the string then work properly.
A help in this regard will be appreciated.

If you want tweets from specific users, the Search API is not the appropriate API to use -- you want to use GET statuses/user_timeline. If you want to consistently fetch just this set of users in a single API call, you should build a Twitter list and fetch from that list's timeline.
