KloutCheck
17 October 11
This is a simple Ruby command-line script to monitor the Klout scores of a
set of people over time. To use it:
- copy it into a directory on a machine with Ruby 1.9.x installed
- create a text file called "userlist.txt" in that directory with one Twitter handle per line
- get a Klout API key
- run the script with your API key as a command-line argument, like:
./kloutcheck.rb 87as878as78f78a
Run it once a day. Each time, it will update the day's Klout scores for your users
in a file called db.json (which you can look at if you're interested), and will
print a report with each user's 5-day rolling average score, and the +/- of this
score vs the 5-day average from 30 days ago (or however many days you've collected
so far, if it's less than 30). The list is sorted by +/-, so the hottest
Twitterers are at the top.
