I'm using this in a php block

  if (function_exists('twitter_pull_render')) { 
    print twitter_pull_render('@user', 'Title', 1); 
  }

Error:
Could not retrieve data from Twitter. The error message received was: Rate limit exceeded. Clients may not make more than 150 requests per hour..This site may be subject to rate limiting. For more information, see:http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Rate-limiting

Block cache is enabled.

Do you have minimal cache lifetime set?

I haven't changed any of the default files that came with the module.

Is your site running on a shared server? It's possible that you are getting the rate limit if other sites on the same server (and same IP address) are making requests as well.

I had experienced similar problem, so I created a patch which helps a lot on shared webhosting:

Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

I just started getting this error on a my VPS with a dedicated IP address and there is only one site on the server. I will try the patch in the link in # 5 above. It's also using the block method. Elsewhere on my site, I am using CCK to pull in Tweets and those areas are fine so it's just the block code where I have issues.
