I am trying to get data for a Followers campaign but the data returned by the AdsAPI doesn’t correspond to the data displayed in the Twitter Ads UI.
GET https://ads-api.twitter.com/0/stats/accounts/18ce53z82f8/promoted_tweets

For example, the total number of impressions on the 25th of October, 2015 is reported as being 4,457, but in the Twitter Ads UI this number is 6,997. There are differences for other metrics as well, for example the number of follows received (12 in the API and 60 in the UI, on the 25th of October).
There are big differences so this looks like a bug.
Thank you.
