YouTube Keyword Search: Videos and Channels as Flat Lists (First Page)

omnial/youtube-keyword-search-videos-and-channels

Given a search keyword, returns the first page of YouTube search results as two flat lists, in result order: videos, each with its video ID, title, length, view count text, how long ago it was published, and its channel's name and channel ID; and channels, each with its channel ID, name and subscriber count text. Takes only the keyword; no filter, sort order or paging is offered. One call returned 9 videos and 1 channel in testing.
