The problem with that is you don't know when the link was added, only when Google etc have picked it up.

Right, that is what the OP is after.

No. The OP said..."How to find out what sites have recently linked to my site?" That link could have been there months before the site changed its look. Which proves nothing about the link was added after the site change.
Hence Flawed.
