Use tweepy search API. But get much fewer result than I search on the website. Why?

for result in tweepy.Cursor(api.search, q = "www.nature.com", count = 100).items():
    count = count + 1
print count

There's only 11 results by using tweepy search API. But when I search at https://twitter.com/search, it returns much more results! Why??

The Twitter API search only goes a couple of days back. It's different to the one used on the website.
