Meta-Search the Search Engines

[SROSeaner]

I am trying to meta-search the search engines.

At the very least, I am trying to capture the results returned from any
search engine (doesn't matter which one), and pick out the results I find
relevant based on a parser I would write in ASP.

I know google has an API, but it's for personal use only it claims. Anybody
have experience capturing search engine results and doing what they want with
them?

Well, I haven't done it personally, but, using MSXML2.ServerXM LHTTP, you
could get results from a search engine (such as dogpile, etc) and parse
them...
