That doesn't work.  It is at best a heuristic. Even if you take the creation 
time of the most recent component or signature, you aren't guaranteed to have 
the latest version of the certificate. A certificate is composed of multiple 
packets, and some can be stripped. `keys.openpgp.org`, for instance, does this: 
it only returns user ID packets that it has verified.
