how to obtain a username from oauth key in twitter

Question

I am working with twitter's oauth, and ive run into a weird problem.

How do i get a user's profile information using just their token and secret?

Here is what im using now

    function OauthGetProfile($consumerkey, $consumersecret, $oauthtoken, $oauthsecret){

$to = new TwitterOAuth($consumerkey, $consumersecret, $oauthtoken, $oauthsecret);
$content = $to->OAuthRequest('http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.xml', array('count' => '50'), 'GET');

return $content;
}

Im not sure how to get this, the api calls to get your profile require you specify the persons profile, which i need their ID to do.

Use the verify credentials call method call.
