Get the user's Followers and following Count using user Email

[sudarshann]

Hi,
I have a membership site where users register. Users register with their email. I wish to show the follower and following count of that user in my site profile page for that user. Is there a way to find the user’s Followers and followed by count only using API ?

like below

Thanks

There is no way to look up Twitter users via email address in the Twitter API.

OK thanks for a quick reply.

Say if I am able to collect the twitter handle from user directly as a profile field. Then how can I fetch the following and followers count

I’d probably use users/show.
