You are referring Twitter npm package, but you are using node-twitter-api. See the documentations. For statuses, you need to use following method.

twitter.statuses("update", {
        status: "Hello world!"
    },
    accessToken,
    accessTokenSecret,
    function(error, data, response) {
        if (error) {
            console.log(error);
        } else {
            console.log(data); 
        }
    }
);
