How to check 20,000 Twitter Accounts for activity? (are inactive) -
i'm writing little app remove inactive twitter accounts follow list.
i follow 20,000 people.
i'm looking @ the statuses/public_timeline api call, utilize timeline of each person follow , if lastly post > 30 days ago, "unfollow" them.
however, rate-limited call, believe run afoul of twitter's api limit. there improve / more clever way implement this? different call?
you can utilize streaming api: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/streaming-api
you filter query userid , check date of lastly post. plus, not rate limited.
