Hi David,

This API method is documented here: 
http://www.gbif.org/developer/occurrence#download

There are no search or filtering parameters accepted, only the paging 
parameters 'limit' and 'offset'.  The data portal URL uses that API 
call, but itself is just displaying this information, and paging through it.

We've experimented with showing a chart for query terms on the demo 
site, we will consider adding a chart for year of download. Is this 
related to what you're working on?
