How to retrieve any user's data from twitter

Is it possible to fetch (through twitter's API) specific user's data (like follower's id, or following user's id) without involve the user itself? I look forward to build twitter data miner but every tutorial i read involves end-users and pin authentication.

Yes. Try Application-only authentication.

Get your keys and store it in a separate file. Then use a streaming api & write a code to fetch what are all the data's you want (like follower's id, name etc..) & make that file to run as a background service that runs all the time.

Hope it helps!
