Fetch the People Also Ask (related questions) block of a Google Search result as structured JSON. Each question carries its answer snippet, source link and an opaque next_page_token. Pass that token back to the endpoint to expand the question further: the response returns the next batch of related questions for that question, each with a fresh token for recursive expansion. A failed or blocked request returns an unbilled 503; a valid empty result is billed.
