Popular Searches API

The Popular Searches API returns the popular searches for for a particular time period.

There are two ways to get popular searches. One is to specify 'day', 'month', 'year', 'hour' or 'minute' parameters to get popular searches in the last number of days, months, years, hours or minutes.

The other is to specify a timestamp for 'start' and 'end' to search within a specific date range.
