The Twitter API allows requesting 100 user profiles with one call, so that means I had to issue 12,500 calls. Twitter limits API requests from a given IP address to 150 per hour (in practice sometimes less). So I generated 1.25M unique user ids in the range 0-637M, and tried to fetch the profile details for them.
