Instead of asking people's usernames and passwords, why not use their OAuth 
technology so that people feel safer while using your service?

Please implement it.

Thanks, I looked into OAuth when they first announced it but put it on the backburner
(and forgot about it, to be honest). Since it is now mature and there's lots of
working code around, I have no further excuse for not doing it.

There's a test version with OAuth access now up at http://test.tweetake.com/ Please
try it and let me know how it goes.

Works fine...but gives 502 error sometimes.

Also it seems it gets only 100 followers and got only 608 tweets..whereas I have
1200+ followers and 1300+ Tweets.

Can you tell me, does this result differ from what you get from the user name +
password version?

Just looked into this a bit further and it looks possible that application
whitelisting isn't being applied to the test version. I'll contact Twitter.

Gah. It wasn't them, it was me. Restructuring the code broke something. Try again,
now, please.

Is there any difference between the normal (non-oauth) and test versions?

Not much...even the normal version misses few tweets...infact the same - 29.

In that case it's most likely the Twitter API ... at least you found no new bugs in
this version (yet).
