Dear Asaf, I am copying Stu Shulman here as he has done some excellent work using Twitter bios. Good luck, Regina Sent from my iPhone

Hi all!
I'm looking for a bit of methodological advice. I want to study a specific group of users on Twitter (stand-up comedians) and searching bio texts across the Twitter user base seems like a good way to do it. However, there doesn't seem to be a direct API endpoint for it or an option in common Twitter sampling tools. What I managed to find were some paid services that supply this option (as a way to promote your own account or whatnot).
So, does anybody know of a tool that manages it somehow? Alternatively, has anybody used a paid service for searching bios (the most popular one seems to be Followerwonk) and found them trustworthy?
Many thanks! Asaf
