How to find out which of your lists someone is a member of.

[tom]

Hi All,

I'm looking for a way to get which of my lists (public and private) a
user is a member of - akin to the lists drop-down on a user's profile
on Twitter.com. Is this information available in an easier way than
calling GET list members id for each list (or, more specifically,
using less API calls)?

Thanks,

Tom

You may use GET /:user/:list_id/members/:id as an option:

Thanks Nelu - I was aware of this method, unfortunately, if a user
owns 6 lists, and we want to check which of those lists a user is a
member of, that would be 6 API calls. This will pretty quickly eat
into a user's 150.

When a list/members method which just returns all the ids of people in
a list is implemented, this will get a lot easier as you'll be able to
cache the list members, but until then can anybody else know of a
workaround?
