Hello,
Your should also try Harzing's Publish or Perish, which is an excellent programme for this type of citation analysis. It's free, easy to access, and will do some quite sophisticated citation metrics for you.

Howdy.
This a good suggestion. Keep in mind though that this will only include those sources indexed by the Web of Science. Depending on the author's subject area, other databases may need to be searched as well, e.g., PubMed (but I'm sure that's obvious to you!).
The problem with this however is that there are likely to be many duplicate citations between the databases. One partial solution is to import the references into bibliographic management software such as Endnote which can identify and delete most duplicates.
