I've just spoken with Roelof, the developer of Maltego, about this and
the answer is that we are stuck with their api key. The key is tied to
the application using it and as the transforms are being ran from the
application on the transform server they can only use their own key.
They did consider running the yahoo transforms from the client machine
but, for reasons he didn't go into, that was rejected.
So, if you really need to get results, work out when the key stats are
reset and make sure you do your searching as soon after that as
possible.
