Hi Peter,

The best way I can think of to achieve this is via reports. For example, 
you could run a KEYWORDS_PERFORMANCE_REPORT 
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports#keywords> with 
the following fields:

   - Date
   - CampaignId
   - AdGroupId
   - Id (the keyword criterion ID)
   - KeywordText
   - KeywordMatchType
   - Clicks

Reports do not support sorting, but you could take the output from the 
report and sort it by descending *Clicks* to see the top keywords. You may 
want to use *Month* in place of *Date* if you find that the *Date* field 
produces too many rows for meaningful analysis.

Thanks,
Josh, AdWords API Team
