I would like to use Google Search to power my site search, without having to use Google-supplied JavaScript or overly-specific (if they need me to say “Powered by Google,” that’s fine). I don’t want to send users to Google’s domain, and I don’t want them to see a Google Custom Search logo.
Is there an API for this?
There is a Google AJAX Search API, which can also be used by a server-side application:

The problem with this, however, is that it’s limited to 64 results per query, if I remember correctly.
