MVC Helper method to handle Anonymous types

I'm trying to create a view Helper class that can take an arbitrary list of parameters, but trying to get a simple syntax on the view side. This is using the Razor engine in MVC.NET. I realize I can do this by using a ViewDataDictionary, however I prefer the Anonymous type syntax.

@Helper.CreateDiv(new {@class="myclass", @id="myId"})

public static string DivHelper(object values) {
    string html = "<div";
    //How do I iterate through the key/value pairs here?  

    //foreach(var key in values.Keys){
    //   html += String.format(" %s=\"%s\"",key,values[key];
    //}
}

Use System.Web.WebPages.Html.HtmlHelper.AnonymousObjectToHtmlAttributes(obj) to convert an anonymous type into a RouteValueDictionary.
