I don't know if there's an API for it, but if you do a Windows search for an unlikely string, say "zxcvbnm", then search the registry for it, then on XP you can see it under one of the folders in:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Search\ACMru

along with the rest of your recent search strings. I imagine this registry location may change between Windows versions though.

If you're targetting Windows 7 then this MSDN article looks like a good starting point.
