Get top sounds in a niche monitor
Returns sounds ranked by how many videos in the niche use them. Free — reads on already-paid-for data. Use sort=rising (or growth_7d) to rank by run-over-run momentum instead of all-time volume; every row carries growth_video_count, growth_views, and a new/rising/steady/fading lifecycle label. Pivot to /v1/sounds/:sound_id/usage-history for the full time-series.

Sort mode. video_count (default) ranks by how many videos in the niche use each sound — identical to the legacy ordering. usage_count ranks by platform-wide all-time usage. rising / growth_7d rank by run-over-run growth in niche usage (the momentum signal — surfaces sounds breaking out inside this genre right now). Every row additionally carries growth_video_count, growth_views, and a new/rising/steady/fading lifecycle label.
