Go to http://www.rarlab.com, click on "Extras" under "RAR" and inside the 
UnRaR source at http://www.rarlab.com/rar/unrarsrc-3.3.6.tar.gz you'll find a 
file license.txt

Part of what is says there is:

      The unRAR sources may be used in any software to handle RAR
      archives without limitations free of charge, but cannot be used
      to re-create the RAR compression algorithm, which is proprietary.
      Distribution of modified unRAR sources in separate form or as a
      part of other software is permitted, provided that it is clearly
      stated in the documentation and source comments that the code may
      not be used to develop a RAR (WinRAR) compatible archiver.

The rest is worth checking too, of course, but in general it looks quite 
simple - you can use it for decompression free of charge.
