How to search Twitter?

I need a PHP script that uses the Twitter API to obtain the following information: the number of unique tweets (or status updates) from a specific user (using their twitter username) containing a specific hashtag during a specific period of time.

I need that value to be the only returned data from calling that function/script; as well as the customizable lines of code containing all relevant values that I need to fill (app id, secret, username to obtain info from, etc).

This is very simple to do with Twitter's Search API.

This is a JSON feed (just fetch with cURL or file_get_contents() and parse with json_decode()) of my Twitter posts that include the #fb hashtag: http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=+%23fb+from%3Aceejayoz

Zend Framework has a nice Twitter API lib, which can be used standalone:
