Answer 1

Use the statuses/mentions method.

5 seconds using google -> http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Libraries#PHP

Answer 3

If needed, you could also use the search API, for example http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=to%3Aoli

This would allow you to get results without authentication, but search's API has its own limitations. See http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Twitter-Search-API-Method%3A-search
