了解twitter流式api响应

Question

我不是一个非常狂热的用户，因此很难弄清楚每个字段在twitter api响应中的含义。通过文档只会导致我进入圈子。

我想要做的是分析事情是如何变成病毒的。所以，我所做的是从twitter流式api中获取数据，希望分析响应，但我完全感到困惑。所以json的一个示例响应是：

{"created_at":"Thu Mar 14 18:19:12 +0000 2013","id":312266679390457857,"id_str":"312266679390457857","text":"The first four winners of our March Madness Giveaway (4x ADATA Technology (USA) 16GB DashDrives) are:

1）我的猜测是，如果这条推文是转发的结果，那么“转推”应该是真的。但是，我如何弄清楚它转发给哪个用户？ 2）“id”用户ID或推文ID？

基本上，如果我想说我想分析江南风格是如何传播病毒的......谁转发/关注那条特定的推文，我该怎么办呢？

此外，Twitter最近改变了它的api。我正在使用python，但在我看来，所有这些api的例子都不起作用

For example: https://github.com/tweepy/tweepy

有什么建议。谢谢
