Could an answer be:
3
The sequence being the number of syllables in the letters of the alphabet, and the 23rd letter - W - has three syllables.

Could the answer be
0
Because
the note says "the answer is not 1" and in computer science, "not 1" is equal to zero

I think the answer is
TWO
Because
All other 25 letters of the English alphabet are single, but W is two U's
