via Pierro: twInfluence is a simple tool using the Twitter API to to measure the combined influence of a Twitterer and his/her followers, with a few social network statistics thrown in as bonus.
We know that "A-List" Twitterers like Scoble, LeoLaporte, and BarackObama have a lot of influence on Twitter, because they have tens of thousands of followers. However, social network analysis teaches us that there is a "horizon of communication" that extends beyond your own direct contacts, and this is demonstrated whenever somebody "retweets" a message. The significance is that not all followers are equal.
Imagine Twitterer1, who has 10,000 followers - most of which are bots and inactives with no followers of their own. Now imagine Twitterer2, who only has 10 followers - but each of them has 5,000 followers. Who has the most real "influence?" Twitterer2, of course.
