I want to get a list of tweets over a certain period eg. an hour, a week in the past. How do I do this?

Our Historics feature is not yet publicly available. It is due to be released within the next couple of months - official date still to be confirmed.

Currently DataSift returns real-time interactions only. The introduction of Historics will allow you to search as far back as January 2010.
