Is the new historical Twitter search feature available in the API?

Twitter recently announced they built the complete index of tweets going all the way back. But calling https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json with q=ftw%20until:2010-12-27 yields no results, even though this specific example is explicitly mentioned in their API doc.

Can anyone confirm or infirm that the API still does not search the full index?

The twitter API still doesn't support searching old tweets. It will only return tweets that are no longer than 7 days old.
