undefined method `each' for 4294:Fixnum - ruby-on-rails-3

Question

I updated from Rails 3.2.3 to 3.2.8 yesterday.
this script worked up until yesterday. now i get this error:
/daily_counts.rb:32:in `<main>': undefined method `each' for 4294:Fixnum (NoMethodError)
top_posters = Load.where("created_at >= '#{today}' AND comments NOT LIKE '%Post%'").count(:all, group: "user_id", order: "COUNT(*) DESC", limit: 8)
output += "Loadmax Totals\n\s\sAll Avaliable Trucks: #{alltrucks}\n\s\sAll Avaliable Loads: #
{allloads}\n\s\sTodays Loads: #{loads}\n\s\sTodays Trucks: #{trucks}\n\nLoadmax Top Posters\n\s\sPostEverywhere: #{posteverywhere}\n\s\sPostOnce: #{postonce}\n"
posters = "\s\s"
LINE 32: Below
top_posters.each do |k,v|
company_name = Company.find(User.find(k).company_id).name unless k.nil?
poster = {
name: company_name,
posts: v
}
poster[:name] = 'MISC' if poster[:name].nil?
posters += "#{poster[:name]}: #{poster[:posts]}\n\s\s"
end
output += posters.chop.chop.chop
output += "\n\s\s"
users = "\s\s"

undefined method `each' for 4294:Fixnum (NoMethodError)
The error is due to your top_posters is 4294 which is an integer because currently it returns a count.So you can't iterate or loop through an integer.
If you want loop through top_posters it should be perhaps an array or a hash.
So you need to fix your query according to your requirements such that the top_posters is an array or a hash.
