Does somebody know what the easiest way would be to work with the apple magic trackpad and just have it recognize gestures (two-finger up/down swipe and left/right swipe and tap) and not be working as a mouse? What language / framework should I use? How can I get the Gestures or the RAW Input data? I have to do this on Windows 7.

All of the Magic Trackpad gestures, such as for 2, 3, 4 fingers can now be enabled in Windows with Extramagic, according to 'Extramagic' for Magic Trackpad: 3/4 Finger Gestures & More - Now in Windows!.
Apples Magic Trackpad driver for Windows is (from a operating system point of view) a simple mouse driver. You can't capture multi touch gestures from that driver. And you can be sure that you really can't as Apple has no interests to support Windows with real multi-touch. So mission impossible unless you write your own driver (see Linux).
