Lucene is more like a search utility library than a full blown Search Engine like FAST. The Lucene sub project, Solr is more comparable to FAST, but Solr does not have a built in crawler available either (though its easy enough to do basic crawls).

There are many open source crawlers you could use to pass documents to Lucene though.

There is droids as Michael mentions below, and that goes well with Tika http://lucene.apache.org/tika/.

There is also Heritrix http://crawler.archive.org/, the Nutch crawler http://lucene.apache.org/nutch/,
and aperture http://aperture.sourceforge.net/.

There are also commercial options of course.
