It may be suboptimal/there may be better ways, but what I would do in your situation would be to save the real twitteR results to a .Rdata file (e.g. put it in inst/vignetteData) and then 'fake' the twitter call: add a non-eval'd but echo'd chunk that appears to run the command, and an eval'd but non-echo'd chunk that loads the results of having run the command.
