New Post: Twitter Rate Limit

$

I know there have been a lot of posts about this which I did take a look at but sorry in advance if I missed a relevant one.

I have a problem with Twitter rate limiting where it doesnt seem to be being applied according to my understanding of the API guidelines.

I am trying to do an Import from Twitter Users Network, using a 1.5 Levels to Include a vertex for People Following the user and an edge Followed/Following relationship.

As I understand it the API allows for up to 200 Followers to be returned per call and there is a limit of 1 call per minute. What I am actually experiencing is that I seem to be being limited to 5 Followers per 15 minutes.

Can someone explain where I am going wrong? The target I am trying to analyse has 79000 followers which should in theory take a few hours, at the rate im getting though it is going to take a few weeks!

Thanks

Pat
