You don't need to use the API or know the user account.

Just drop it into the following URL format, where XXXXXXXXX is the tweet id.

You can use any user name and the url will redirect to the correct twitter handle.

For instance, if I go to:

twitter.com/anyuser/status/541278904204668929

The link redirects to:
