The counts are waaay off. I'm using tweetmeme for one of my sites, and while that shows 150 tweets for one page the Twitter widget shows 11

- thesethings 16y agoYeah. You're not the only one saying this. Tweetmeme uses Backtype data, right? (At least when used through Posterous it seems to.) Also, on Twitter's blog, it says Tweetmeme is now "pointing" to the Twitter button. But it's not totally, otherwise we couldn't get our counts like we are.
- konsl 16y agoWe (BackType) don't power Tweetmeme's button — we offer our own, more accurate one. The counts we do are also available via our API, which powers Posterous' button.
- thesethings 16y agoAh, thanks for the rapid reply. (HN is so cool :). I think the Posterous set-up is what confused my sense of the relationship.
- avibryant 16y agoWhat's the URL? I can try to look into the discrepancy.
