I am seeing the same issue. In my case, the first four iterations work
(i.e. I retrieve 400 users), but the next call gives me a 404.

I added this to the issue tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/detail?id=1264

I added this as issue 1264 in the twitter-api issue tracker, which
you'll have to find on your own. It appears they don't trust me enough
to let me post links here yet. :D

Over the last 4 or so days there has been a few brief periods of instability on the backing store that provides the Social Graph. I'd re-run your test to see if you were just very unlucky, or if the issue persists.

I am still seeing this issue. Trying the URLs provided by Ammo
Collector in the top post still yields 404's as well.

Is there an update to the status of this issue? A user of my program
reported a problem that ended up being this. While trying to iterate
through:
http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/friends/oevl.xml
Cursor 1274505087418535016 returned fine and contained a next_cursor
value of 1267920196862230269. That value returned a 404.

Sorry to keep bringing this up, but this is still causing problems for
me. Is there any follow-up as to what the issue is? Thanks in
advance.

I am now seeing this on some of my own accounts - has any movement or
fix been applied?

curl http://twitter.com/statuses/friends/codebear.json <-- returns
[]
curl http://twitter.com/statuses/friends/manta.json <-- returns
{"request":"/statuses/friends/manta.json","error":"Not found"}

As far as I can tell, there has been no progress on this. There is a
bug open for the issue, if you would like to follow it:

I've been hitting this a lot lately with data for my own id. It's a
huge issue. I'm happy to see that it's been marked as a high
priority, but it's been around for months. Do we have an estimate for
a fix? Thanks!

And by soon I mean today.  It should be fixed now.  Let me know if this recurs.
