Do the server and datacenter ID's effectively leak location data?
2) There is no guarantee that traffic IS NOT routed from another region to handle traffic peaks.

You could reduce the sequence ID space by employing the fact that it is overall less likely that a tweet is deleted than otherwise and a sequence of two CONSECUTIVE deleted tweets is even less likelier.
E.g. If you find sequence ID 0 but don't find 1,2,3 than you can probably skip 4,5,6,7. I don't know the probabilities of deleted tweets, but i am sure someone could calculate it to determine the 99% threshold.
