Twitter search by keyword with "vine.co" added is the best way for the general public at the moment. Seenive feeds off the Twitter feed as I understand it, incidentally.
The problem with this is that the Twitter public feed is capped, and of course the Vine vids have to be tweeted to begin with. So unfortunately you really are getting only a small % of videos there.
Now, there is also an "unofficial" Vine API (reverse engineered from the Android / IOS app) that coders can use at their own discretion. If this ever became official, this would be what you want as you can search by hashtag and user timelines like the app. It's not official, unfortunately, so no one is going to want to code a public app that uses it (and potentially piss Twitter/Vine off).
My current method is a custom program that snags videos from these APIs (recently made into a service and now currently quietly collecting about 1000 videos a day (!)).
