    var youTube = new YouTube();

    youTube.setKey('AIzaSyB1OOSpTREs85WUMvIgJvLTZKye4BVsoFU');

    youTube.search('World War z Trailer', 2, function(error, result) {

      if (error) {

        console.log(error);

You can also pass in an optional params object. This is useful for paging:

    youTube.search('World War z Trailer', 2, {pageToken: 'XxXxX'}, function(error, result) {

    });

Page token is a property on the response - `nextPageToken` or `previousPageToken`
