I figured it would be limited to appending a small variable to the URL if they shared in one of the defined mediums (twitter, g+, etc). Beyond that, I can look at the referrer.

For those looking, I think the meat of the info is stored in the incoming\_link model. I could stitch together some of this from looking at the referring URL too.
