So I'm surprised at the randomness that you'd get added by another user. Still it's proving pretty popular now. Used to be some users that had 5k+ friends but then strange things started happening to their accounts like being unable to modify their details and only do updates via IM. Twitter have since throttled their API to only allow 72 transactions per hour as well and I'm sure they'll come up with something else to try and shut us down.

(big surprise) My Friends/Followers ratio is 21 because right after I used TwitterAdder I got added as a friend to two people. (Of course I was only trying to get a new record based on the fact that I had no followers.)
