My problem was I wanted to search a whole slew of files in a directory
tree. Also I was misreading some of the the org-agenda documentation.
After reading the article on custom agenda commands on Worg, many of my
misconceptions were resolved. Now I have written a function to find org
files recursively from a directory tree and I use this list to
selectively search project directories.

e.g.:

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      '(("W" "Search tutorials on Worg" search ""
         ((org-agenda-files nil)
          (org-agenda-text-search-extra-files
           (find-org-file-recursively "~/org/Worg/org-tutorials"))))))
