Emilio, Taha: I realize this was long enough ago that you may no longer be interested but I finally got around to adding an archive function to wikitweets [1]. Every time the app collects 1000 tweets that reference Wikipedia it dumps them to a file on Internet Archive [2].
One nice side effect of this is that you get a BitTorrent seed/peer for free [3], which makes mirroring the data pretty simple...if you have a BitTorrent client handy. I blogged a little bit about how it the archive function in wikitweets works [4].
