Everyone appears offline on my Buddy List

2 days ago, randomly, when I signed on with my same ol' SN i've had for like 6 years, it showed that everyone on my Buddy List was offline. I knew something was wrong because there's never not a SINGLE Buddy online. So I tried Saving my Buddy List, deleting it, and reloading it. When I did that everything went back to normal and everyone who was on was properly displayed. However, groups of people kept signing on and off at the same time on the Buddy List when they were actually still logged in and I was talking to them. Eventually it was down to nobody again. Also, whenever I sign off and sign on again, it shows everybody offline again, forcing me to do the Save/Delete/Reload again. Has AIM gone crazy?

I'm having the same problem since ~Saturday.
The problem isn't replicated with other accounts on my computer or other computers.
The same error occurs in pidgin, aim express, and beejive.
Reloading the buddy list does work, but only until those people sign off.
I think it's an issue with their servers, but AIM has no support options available.

My problem resolved itself a week after my post. Otherwise I just used a different screenname to see who's online and message through my main SN. That's about all you can do.
