From buffer's faq. [1]

> example, Facebook recommend 5 posts per day as the limit, but 25 is really the upper limit that they allow without decreasing the reach of your posts.

So I can only assume that these people have found out that the actual hard limit for non penalised posts is 250.

If the accounts are posting at different times of the day, and the reports are all for the same 7 day period it doesn't make much sense that all the accounts would show exactly 250 posts. Given that they post at different times of the day.

I think this is an API limit on the analytics. From my cound of the Business Insider posts it looks like they're actually posting nearer 650 posts a week.

It's just being capped by the API to 250.
