Are you an experienced programmer in any other languages?
If so, then python should be a very small part of your problem.

If not then you are probably biting off a bit more than you can
chew in the short term...

I know nothing of Facebook's public API and indeed only occasionally
use Facebook as a platform. However, it seems unlikely that they would
expose that algorithm to external agencies since it could be greatly
abused and seriously upset their customer base. So unless you work
for Facebook and have access to their core code I suspect its not possible.

On the other hand in this open-source age I'm possibly being overly
sceptical.

Do you have a Facebook interface specification you can share?
Then we might be able to help.
