If you call the trend/current with the excludes=hashtags you get the
top 10 trends without hashtags...

For example, right now if I do it with hashtags I get (partial JSON
response):


"name":"#imthetypeto"
"name":"#nowplaying"
"name":"RIP JD Salinger"
"name":"Haiti"
"name":"Catcher in the Rye"
"name":"Howard Zinn"
"name":"#subliminaltweet"
"name":"#omgthatssotrue"
"name":"Shorty Award"
"name":"#idothat2"

and without hashtags I get:

"name":"RIP JD Salinger"
"name":"Haiti"
"name":"Catcher in the Rye"
"name":"Howard Zinn"
"name":"Shorty Award"
"name":"Holden Caulfield"
"name":"All-Star"
"name":"Union"
"name":"Super Bowl"
"name":"SOTU"

Ideally the new local trends api would give us the ability to do the
same.  It would mean tracking more trends on your end I guess (up to
20 instead of 10 I am guessing since the top 10 could all be
hashtags).
