With the follow parameter, you should only get real replies retweets.
If you need to track all mentions, try the track parameter (i.e.
track=@user)

Hi All,
The streaming api documentation says that mentions, implicit retweets
and implicit replies will NOT be returned. However, it looks like they
are being returned. For our application we do need to keep track of
mentions and the streaming api seems to work fine. Can we rely on it
being present always? Is the documentation dated and need to be
updated?
Thanks,
Kumar.
