Hello!, I am really new coding python but I got some ideas you may like.

I Saw that auto_unfollow_nonfollowers(): deletes all the nonfollowers but if you do auto_follow often maybe you follow so much people that wouldnt follow you back and its so agressive, so I figured a way to prevent that only changing the definition and one line.def auto_unfollow_nonfollowers(self,count=None): and just before the file writings and unfollowing not_following_back = not_following_back[:count] So if you dont set the count the bot will work normal and if you set it will go only on the interval, so you dont hit rate limits.

Good idea - auto_unfollow_nonfollowers() should have a limiting variable like that too. I filed this as an enhancement request.
