The more you tweet, the higher your level of attention and, therefore, the more likely you are to pick up more followers. Then, with more followers -- more engagement, more tweeting, more attention – it’s a natural progression sort of thing.

While we may be able to pull together an answer in regression, I think the trend is purely organic...the users with the most followers are the most active. I don't necessarily think that it is a conscious action or obligation. It would be interesting to overlay some kind of 'velocity' metric; viewing the daily growth of followers by the number of tweets per day. My guess is the users with the greatest 'follower velocity' are driving the averages in their respective categories. Interesting data analysis.
