I had a look at the API whitelist form, but the plugin of course makes requests from the webserver it's installed on, so the IP and Traffic range fields don't really make sense in this case. So: How and is it possible for such a plugin to access your API? - Currently max. 10 requests/hour are being sent. - The url_info.json method is the only one being called.

How do I identify my client (a web app running on GAE)? I am getting zero for the x-ratelimit-remaining http header, when I have only made one API call to the TweetMeme urlinfo API. mariovitali on "API Stories Problem" http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/topic/1090#post-3786 Sun, 14 Nov 2010 12:39:26 +0000 mariovitali 3786@http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/ Hello, I tried accessing the Stories API through the following call : <a href="http://api.tweetmeme.com/stories/popular.xml?page=2" rel="nofollow">http://api.tweetmeme.com/stories/popular.xml?page=2</a> However the result is not returned as an XML document (both in browser and in JAVA code). Am i doing something wrong? Thanks Mario speedydev on "API Guideline Clarification" http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/topic/1082#post-3771 Fri, 05 Nov 2010 20:32:28 +0000 speedydev 3771@http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/ I read the API Guidelines (<a href="http://help.tweetmeme.com/2009/06/09/api-guidelines/" rel="nofollow">http://help.tweetmeme.com/2009/06/09/api-guidelines/</a>) and the Terms of Use and am trying to make sense of them. I'd like to create a slimmed down version of the Tweetmeme button using your API with different graphics (same functionality, though), but make it so that all of the requests to Tweetmeme are made on the server-side and then cached for some time instead of on the client-side as they are now. Is this allowed? I wouldn't be redistributing the code for this Thanks, Michael lespaul_std on "Popular API "count" parameters not working" http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/topic/806#post-2669 Thu, 04 Mar 2010 07:11:00 +0000 lespaul_std 2669@http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/ I found out that the "count" parameter for popular API is not working. This request -> <a href="http://api.tweetmeme.com/stories/popular.xml?media=video&count=30" rel="nofollow">http://api.tweetmeme.com/stories/popular.xml?media=video&count=30</a> returned 10 results (the default value) instead of 30. What am I missing? Thanks. Adam on "SSL Support" http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/topic/1049#post-3672 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 12:17:30 +0000 Adam 3672@http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/ I've just had to remove the tweetmeme button from my blog as you don't support SSL - this really surprised me. I did a quick check and the only thing I could find was a thread from last year. So any update? That thread mentioned it becoming a paid for service if there was a very good business case. I can't understand the hesitance to implement it ? How about if I give you a certificate for free for the api subdomain?

Also, what is the source of the excerpt variable when you fetch popular stories? Is this a tweet that someone had originally posted? If so, how can I find out the account the tweeted that vprelovac on "RT does not place the username" http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/topic/973#post-3334 Mon, 28 Jun 2010 09:48:51 +0000 vprelovac 3334@http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/ This post <a href="http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/how-to-do-clever-keyword-research" rel="nofollow">http://www.prelovac.com/vladimir/how-to-do-clever-keyword-research</a> has 30 retweets the only problem is that rt @vprelovac was not added to them. snugabell on "TweetMeMe RT's not showing in @replies" http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/topic/947#post-3219 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 03:49:48 +0000 snugabell 3219@http://help.tweetmeme.com/forum/ Hi there, I have TweetMeMe on my blog, and my most recent post, for example, has 6 tweets, but when I look at my @replies, they are not there.
