i was wondering is there a way to code something maybe in java or html to get the top ten trends and display it on a side panel if that makes sense

um, what kind of "trends", like the "top 10" here on the site or like the "top 10 movies of the year"? and where are you getting them from? another website or do you want to gather them by yourself? do you want to integrate it into an already existing website?
more details man...

CURL and PHP, use regex to strip out HTML to leave only the data 'google trends'.

Google CURL + PHP, should be more than enough information.

wait for a API and it will probably do you much good

well, without php the only option you have is to enter all the links by yourself....which can be a pain in the rear depending on the update frequency..
