Try topsy.com, who I believe also have a full archive of tweets.
I'm just not sure how much they'll share with you without a pro account, and
in what form.

you could try checking with the European Parliament Free Software User Group
(EPFSUG) -- I'm sure that some of the people there work on similar things:

Hi all,
in terms of cool AN tooling, I want to also point people at the amazing work
that my colleague Greg Kempe has been doing with South African bylaws (
http://openbylaws.org.za/). The frontend is cool, but what's awesome is the
backend tooling he's developed for turning plain text into AN XML. It comes
with a WYSIWYG editor for turning semi-structured docs into AN.
* Ruby gem for extraction: https://github.com/longhotsummer/slaw

Cheers,
