The API and our data share some key concepts, whilst simple it is important for you to understand these properly.
A particular community / interest group eg. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple
A metric out of 1000 to showing the influence of a given influencer within a particular cluster. This is created using our own algorithm using only publicly accessible data.
For more info on what this means we recommend you read . With the way our algorithm currently works, every twitter account can have a score within a cluster (most will have a score of 0.0), but we rarely collect or record this.
Only accounts with high scores will have ranks. Unlike scores, not everyone has a rank.
We use algorithms to filter out irrelevant people within clusters.
Accounts without ranks will have the following data representation in their responses:rank: null
Our API treats people differently from other types of influencers (Companies, bots).
For that reason ranks using rank_type=personal may be different from the ranks given in the endpoint rank_type=all
The ranks displayed on the homepage are using rank_type=personal
A unique series of numbers corresponding to a twitter account.
The username of a Twitter account. We never include ‘@’ symbols
