In about:config, change both:

extensions.getAddons.recommended.url and extensions.getAddons.search.url to be https://preview.addons.mozilla.org/%LOCALE%/%APP%/api/%API_VERSION%/search/%TERMS%/all/10/%OS%/%VERSION%
Open Tools | Add-ons, click the "Get Add-ons" tab
Search for:
1. Most popular add-ons (xmarks, adblock plus, firebug, twitter, personas, etc.)
2. Note that results are filtered to your platform (Win, Mac, Linux) and version-compat range, so, e.g., using Firefox 3.0.8 on Windows will only return you compatible add-ons for a maxVersion of 3.0.* and Windows/All
3. Add-ons marked platform="ALL" should be found using any of the 3 platforms
4. Add-ons marked, platform="Win", it follows, should be found only using a Windows user-agent
  1. Be sure to also note that you're using the preview AMO database, and as such, will be returned different results from prod
