BotometerLite: put n users in the screen_name_list variable, but returns bot values of n-2 users #76

Hi! I am using the the BotometerLite endpoint to collect bot values of multiple users in bulk. Since the maximum user limit for BotometerLite is 100, I put the usernames of 100 users in the variable of screen_name_list; however, the program only returns 98 bot values. The bot values of No. 99 and No. 100 user were not calculated. I also tried other numbers, like inputing 94 and 51 usernames, then I got bot values of 92 and 49 users. When I lower the number of usernames to 10, I can get bot values for all these 10 users.

Does anyone know why it happens? Thanks.

I'm guessing there are two accounts that are no longer available.

Thanks very much for the replu and sorry for the stupid question. It is because the users that are suspended will not be returned with a note like the Botometer-V4.
