Hello there, There is no method to do this straight from the API. What 'details' of each follower are you interested in having? Can you elaborate on why you're interested in having an export to excel if possible too. Scott.

This is an easy coding task in any of the scripting languages with Twitter API libraries - I do it in Perl but I'm sure it can be done in Python, Ruby or PHP as well with just a few lines of code. Finally, there are some ways in Excel to import XML data - anything you can export from Twitter via Atom / RSS feeds in XML can be imported into Excel that way. -- http://twitter.com/znmeb http://borasky-research.net A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems. -- Paul Erdős -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk

I've seen someone do it with VB scripting. Ask him, you can find him as Randomness on this list and on Twitter as @nl_twop_1000 Tom On 3/25/11 7:39 PM, M.
