Amazon MWS API, listing seller's products that is updated after a specific date

I am trying to list the products of a seller (using marketplaceID) that is created or updated after a specific date.

I tried RequestReport with ReportType "_GET_MERCHANT_LISTINGS_DATA_" and setting StartDate to the target date but the data returned contains products that are created (or lastly updated) before that date.

The documentation is not very specific on what 'StartDate' actually does:

Start of a date range used for selecting the data to report.

Type: xs:datetime

Default: Now

If I recall correctly, this date does not relate to a products modification timestamps but to a products existance in the database. As an example, setting StartDate to yesterday should give you a list of products that were in the database within the last 24 hours. This includes products that were recently created and products that were created way before that but still exist.

I don't think it is possible to get a list of products that were modified within a timeframe (again, I'm writing this from my recollection on how this worked when I played with it)
