POST statuses/filter
Returns public Tweets that match one or more filter predicates. Multiple parameters may be specified which allows most clients to use a single connection to the Streaming API. Both GET and POST requests are supported, but GET requests with too many parameters may cause the request to be rejected for excessive URL length. Use a POST request to avoid long URLs.
The track, follow, and locations fields should be considered to be
combined with an OR operator. track=foo&follow=1234
returns Tweets matching "foo" OR created by user 1234.
The default access level allows up to 400 track keywords, 5,000 follow userids and 25 0.1-360 degree location boxes. If you need access to more rules and filtering tools, please apply for enterprise access.
