Comment(by aaroncampbell):

 I'm the author of the [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/twitter-widget-
 pro/ Twitter Widget Pro] plugin, and the way I handle styling is simply to
 add CSS classes to everything and supply no styling at all.  It seems that
 99% of the time the user drops that into their theme and it works just
 fine, automatically using the styles that the theme has set up.

 The main thing I run up against is theme authors that have forgot to style
 a header link (something like `<h4><a href="...">Some Text</a></h4>`) in
 the sidebar.  No default widgets use this, so sometimes a theme author
 doesn't think about it and the title of my widget will be a different
 color or size than the others.  Other than that, it really works fine.
