It looks like the Web API does some extra things like allowing you to specify multiple contract IDs. The API to use for TWS is the market data API. You can request different tick types using the generic_ticks parameter. Tick types are documented here. Specifying generic ticks is not as fine grained as the field level filtering on the Web API.
