Threads are considered hot when they hit a certain amount of admin selectable views or replies. I am not sure what the query would be to pull the admin setting for it but you could probably achieve something along the lines by using a script with hard coded values.
I think you might want to tag it onto vb's search functions though since I am sure it would be intesive if ran alot. You could probably do the query once or twice a day via cron and keep the list on a php page for members to look at.
