The search.list method allows you to search for videos, channels, or playlists that match specified criteria. You can search based on video properties, keywords or topics (or a combination of these), and you can sort the results based on factors such as creation date, views, etc.

My Most Viewed Videos: this request retrieves all of the authenticated user's video and lists them in descending order by View ( viewcount ), see the example below.

GET {base_URL}/search?part=snippet
                     &forMine=true
                     &order=viewCount
                     &maxResults=5
                     &type=video

Like other YouTube data API requests, the search.list method returns the default JSON representation.
