Just noticed that the followers count on my profile at twitter.com is
different from the count retrieved via the API. The JSON via the API
gives the correct count, while the website reflects a false count
triggered by someone who must have clicked "follow" twice, which was
also reflected by a doubled email notification.

Sounds like stale caching data. It is a known shortcoming to the engineer responsible for our core caching architecture.

Thanks,
Doug
