Glimpse/Webglimpse is a good search engine too.
Some tips if you want to develop it for yourself:
You have to weigh the words by their source. The following is an example preference: Words from title: 100, words from meta keywords: 75, words from headlines: 50, words from the document body: 10.
Store the place of the word in the given document. E.g. the word is in the first 100 words. When the user is looking for two or more words, you can compare the hits, as if the found words are closer to each other as the other findings. Then you can compute a rank.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
