What is “BackTweets”?
BackTweets is a conversational search engine for links on Twitter which is a part of a service from Backytype. Backtweets un-shortens and lists links sent via Twitter.
BackTweets API
The BackTweets API is very simple – just make a call to the SERP with your desired data format. Backtweets supports both XML and JSON responses, and every API call requires an API key that you can obtain from the BackType Developers page once you’ve signed up for BackType. All BackTweets API calls will fall under your permissible 1000 BackType API requests per day.

Author Per-Mattias ‘P-M’ Nordkvist says
Swedmedia Backtweets Monitor is a plugin that scans Backtweets.com for mentions of your blog and your posts on Twitter and displays them on your dashboard. Backtweet is an excellent service for monitoring your reputation on Twitter and this brings that to Wordpress.
The plugin works out-of-the-box once you activate it. It shows up immediately on your Dashboard and if you want to you can select a Twitter-account to ignore from the feed. Since you probably use Twitter to post your blogs that might be a good idea.
