When I quit my job last year I hired a temp agency to find a replacement for myself, and the lady from the agency actually asked me if I ever did contract work. Occasionally they do get companies who just need help with temp projects, but they have a hard time filling those positions because most people are looking for permanent employment.

I would recommend setting up an appointment and going to talk to them about it. I would let them know you are not interested in employment but are only interested in temporary contract work. If you do get an assignment you can establish a relationship with the company so that they would call you directly next time they need help instead of going through the temp agency.
