Deleted tweets still showing on Twitter search

Twitter's search facility still displays messages you've deleted even up to 3 days ago (as of today, test messages I made 3 days ago are still visible in the Twitter search).

I can only guess the search facility is using a caching system and the cache has yet to be updated, or perhaps this is a genuine bug and deleted messages are never flushed from the search?
