## Get the most recent retweets of a specific Twitter status

### Description

Returns a collection of the 100 most recent retweets of a given status. NOTE: Twitter's API is currently limited to 100 or fewer retweeters.

### Usage

    get_retweets(status_id, n = 100, parse = TRUE, token = NULL, ...)

### Arguments

`status_id` | required The numerical ID of the desired status.
`n` | optional Specifies the number of records to retrieve. Must be less than or equal to 100.
`parse` | Logical indicating whether to convert the response object into an R list. Defaults to TRUE.
`token` | Every user should have their own Oauth (Twitter API) token. By default `token = NULL` this function looks for the path to a saved Twitter token via environment variables (which is what 'create_token()' sets up by default during initial token creation). For instruction on how to create a Twitter token see the tokens vignette, i.e., 'vignettes("auth", "rtweet")' or see `?tokens`.
`...` | Other arguments used as parameters in the query sent to Twitter's rest API, for example, `trim_user = TRUE`.
