Apparently all 3 of Twitter names I own and use are still available :/ I'm thinking that now you're up you should bug check it.
It says "Yep" for my handle...
Are you hitting https://twitter.com/users/username_available?username=[X]? I wonder if that private API is rate limited.

Nice! You know what would be cool too? If you could also suggest available Twitter names that are derivatives of the name I type in.
"It always says 'Yep' for me :/" true.
garrrh. thanks everyone - not sure why it's returning "yep". Looking into this now.
perhaps a blog entry on how to make a catchy HN title would be good too ;)
not quite working but it does seem like a fun sunday morning project.
Edit: Ah, backend returns HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable .
