Twitter Trends API

- Hello Carson and others! First of all thank you very much for this enriching and powerful tool.

- I am currently working on a project that deals with redesigning public spaces according to public activity online and other cybernetic influences.

- I'm trying to analyze world trends on twitter so i can then transmit different messages that are affiliated with these trends to the physical public space.
Here is a project that basically used the same technique:

- I was wandering if there was a way to get access to the twitter's trends api through musquito, or alternatively is there a way that i can analyze global/local trends through the search api that the plugin already offers.

Thank you very very much.
