Will tell my client, this is not feasible.

This won't contain protected accounts, and would only contain tweets from
the last ten minutes or so.

> - Create a fake user that has follows the same accounts,

No, I'd like to construct home timeline of any random user.

How about this approach?

Find friend ids of the user
Listen to Streaming API's filter method following user's friends,
specify a negative count to receive historic stream (retweets
included)
Process & display the tweets
