You can also take a look at one of my apps that pulls out a lot of
this data for any (public) Twitter user.
http://tweetstats.com/graphs/dacort shows my activity since I joined
Twitter and can be broken down by month.
I'd be very interested in hearing your conclusions, feel free to let
me know if there's a way I can help.

Hi
I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong area, as I haven't posted
here before and am not a developer. I am a lecturer and researcher at
Dublin Business School and I've tried to find what I'm looking for
elsewhere, but so far haven't found what I need. I reckon this is
fairly straightforward, but I'm not a coder, so I don't know. If you
think you can do this, please email me with a quote
I need help with a project I'm trying to get off the ground - I'm a
research psychologist with a special interest in social networking.
Basically, I want to look at the personality profile of Twitter users.
This has been done before with Facebook, but with self-reporting of
usage data.
I want an app which will, with the user's permission, produce their
overall statistics:- e.g.
number of followers, following, listed, tweets, date joined, number of
@replies, #hashtags, retweets, and links.
This will form part of an online survey which will also include
personality and other psychological measures (for more information
seehttp://www.ciaranmcmahon.ie/psychbook/social-network-profiling-project/).
The basic idea is to see if there is a relationship between
personality traits and actual Twitter usage.
For example, I'm interested in things like the personality differences
between the average Facebook and Twitter user, what types of people do
or don't retweet or provide links - that type of thing
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Ciarán
