Nitter does not use the official API, so there is no API key to expire.
The "sometimes cannot connect to the API", is because the APIs they use (which IIRC are the APIs the official twitter website uses), changes from time to time and is not a stable API and probably because Twitter wants to make it harder to "abuse" the API like nitter does.
