Basically, I would like to replicate the functionality

commons.wikimedia.org search page. Ideally I would like to be able to get a
Category listing (ex.

or a true search results (ex.
http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&search=…)ral),
but at this point I would be happy with either.
The search results are exposed through the API:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=search&sr…
. Unfortunately we don't really have image keywords or anything like
that, so searching for images is not as simple as it probably should
be. But it's probably been done before.
