"Black" and "white" points here are pixel counts from the darkest and brightest ends respectively. To turn the darkest 90% of the pixels black, and the brightest 5% white, use the following:

<?php
$im
= new Imagick ("some image.png");
list (
$width, $height) = array_values ($im->getImageGeometry ());
$px = $width * $height;
$im->modulateImage (100, 0, 100);
$im->linearStretchImage ($px * 0.9, $px * 0.05);
$im->writeImage ("temp.jpg");
?>
