Ben - These numbers are either dramatically overstated or Twitter is limiting which results they are publishing via the API. I use my product justSignal to track every tweet for Iran - and the max volume I've seen since mid 6-15 is about 17k tweets per hour.
I'm making all the data public at http://justsignal.com/freei... - you can grab the hourly XML files there and check for yourself, but I'm 100% certain there were never 200k tweets per hour (at least not that ever made it OUT of Twitter in any way).

This is amazing and addictive. I'm trying to post as many annotated links as possible. The links just keep coming. Some good and some bad. I'm filtering through the spam links. A couple have been really offensive. Check out the spam list of twitterers on the #IranElection twt stream.

Yes the Iran election is very very important to many people even me. It would be great imho if the current president were impeached, he is a super loose canon that needs to be out of power. A man like that possessing nuclear weapons is not god for anyone on the planet except for the obviously few that think just like he does.

I have been caching data myself the past 24 hours, it seems that the #iranelection tag, I am getting a slightly lower number (I am assuming a margin of error).
Sill if you want we can compare data. We might find a pattern.

Iranians, we in America are watching you and are with you as you march for freedom and fair
elections. Americans know who the criminals are in your country, keep up the fight.
