Say if I retweeted everything in my Twitter stream, is there a limit per day that I would reach?
If so, should I untweet some of these posts to stay under the limit?

Depending on how many tweets you retweet and send then, yes.
You are limited to sending 1,000 updates per day broken down into semi-hourly intervals. If you hit your account update limit, you will have to wait until you have passed the limit-period before you can send further updates. Retweets are classed as an update.
You would also be limited by the API Rate Limits - currently 150 unauthenticated API calls and 350 authenticated API calls.
Other Account Limits are as follows:
