Those are Twitter crawlers, nothing to worry about. Just ignore that traffic, normally it happens once with every new domain. Sometimes it happens very soon after the link was posted or in a few days, a week at most in my experience. It can be more than 20 UVs though, usually i get around 70-100 unique clicks per domain from these bots.

The first ones are Twitter bots. The other ones are miners looking for fresh content.
