Ya know, I was afraid you were going to say something like that.... does
anyone know of anything like this that has been done? And does anyone
know
where I can find a list of Search Engine IP adds?

BTW Jeremy, Thanks.

You are going to have to research the query string for each search
engine that you intend to support, and then parse it out.

for example: go to google.  search for [jeremy brand], notice the
REQUEST_URI:
/search?q=jeremy+brand

In google's case, since they always use q=, you can parse this out.

You'll need to do this and write a module for each search engine
(since they all will have their own behavior).

Maybe someone has done this work, but you always have to keep curent
because search engines are free to chenge their own code any time they
want.
