Start with
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=#hashtag&until=2010-12-08 (the
previous day date)

Note the last tweet in the resultset returned, and store its id.
This is the last tweet for that #hashtag on that day.

Then use
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?since_id=your_stored_id

This will give the first tweet of the next day for given hashtag.
