Ahem. Revisited this, doing browser testing. The reason from_date and to_date work is that they are ignored. Compare the total field on api.stackoverflow.com/1.1/… to api.stackoverflow.com/1.1/…. Either way, you can pass in a float if you want now; in the latest revision it'll be appropriately converted behind-the-scenes.

Doing some testing... strange: with from_date=aWhileAgo and to_date=currentDate it works, as it does with fromdate=int(aWhileAgo) and todate. But using a float as fromdate (as aWhileAgo was), which is formatted with a trailing .0 fails with error 500. So both work with integers; this might be an API inconsistency.

Hello; sorry for the delay, glad you solved your problem. To answer your first question, you can turn on debug printing of URLs by setting stackexchange.web.WebRequestManager.debug = True. I agree that the documentation in that area is lacking; a wiki page is coming up. I'll look into that inconsistency; it seems quite pointless... I apologise on behalf of my younger self.
