In the short term there are no plans to support partial matching.
It's considerably more expensive than the current implementation.

 Streaming API docs and they state that if using Track for query
 parameter, Terms are exact-matched, and also exact-matched ignoring
 punctuation. From what i can figure out from that statement and
 running couple of tests, Streaming API is not returning partial word
 matches, which Searce API does. For example - keyword bit.ly returns
 all results on Search API with *bit.ly*, while Streaming API returns
 only results with exact bit.ly. Are there any plans to support partial
 word matches in the Streaming API?

I've been able to track act.ly urls by using act.  So try bit and just
throw out anything that isn't a bit.ly url.
