Hi Charles,
To help with some student projects, I patched together an almost ridiculously primitive tool, using Python's emoji package - you paste text in a form field and get emoji statistics in return: http://labs.polsys.net/tools/textanalysis/
May still be useful somehow.
best,
Bernhard

The broad hypothesis is that anger will be most prevalent and effective in catalyzing further response (including sharing, likes, etc.) - but four emotions total are taken on board: sadness, anger, surprise, and happiness.
