Twitter - get user_id or screen_name request by user email

I am trying to get a user_id or screen_name request by email on Twitter. We have a website as well as a user database. I also have all user emails, and I would like to request if they have a Twitter account, and if so, get the instance_name or user_id ....

I have read all twitter api documentation and it seems that I can only request a user for the screen_name or user_id name ...

http://apiwiki.twitter.com/w/page/24142947/Twitter-REST-API-Method:-users-lookup
https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/users/search

Based on this request: api.twitter.com/1/users/lookup.xml?user_id=1401881,1401882

I tried this: api.twitter.com/1/users/lookup.xml?email=[e-mail] Then I got this: "The client application is not allowed to search with the specified conditions"

So, it looks like Twitter knows this email parameter (otherwise it should show an error message)

Any idea?
