Retrieve more than twenty tweets from twitter?

I would like to know how to retrieve more than twenty tweets from twiiter. I have looked at the twitter documentation but havent been able to figure out how to do it. I have code that gets twenty tweets but cant figure out how to get more. Heres the code

$xmldata = 'http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/SkySportsNews.xml';
$open = fopen($xmldata, 'r');
$content = stream_get_contents($open);
fclose($open);
$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($content);
$i = 0;
while($i < 20)
{
 echo $i . $xml->status[$i]->text . "</br>";  
  $i++;
 }

Any help is appreciated

thanks

The default number of tweets returned is 20, to change that specify a count query string parameter:

http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/SkySportsNews.xml?count=200

It cannot exceed 200.
