You could use "pkg rquery", which handles requests agains remote repo database. It features less request types than "pkg query" against local packages database, but I hope it could give some help for you problem. E.g. you could use: % pkg rquery '%o - %?r' to get list of packages with a number of reverse dependencies and consider the ones with zero reverse dependencies as 'top level'. 'man pkg-rquery' may give some other hints.
