Analyze my opponent's backlinks and where they come from

I have an opponent doing pretty well. He is ranking top 1-3 and the worst thing is that i started much earlier than him. I want you to first of all write the word Cake if you read this when bidding, so I know you really read my description. But anyway, back to the project. I want you to analyze my opponent and his website. I want to know where his backlinks come from and how I can get the same links or links with the same effetcts. This is really the only thing you have to do. Short time frame and fast work is appreciated.
