It sounds like a full text search engine might do a bit more than you need, but based on what you described, should also be sufficient. I highly recommend Xapian (xapian.org). It has feature-complete Python bindings, it's very well designed, and its performance is fantastic. Xapian supports stemmers for most major languages (except for Asian languages, unfortunately).
