The search functionality on this site is powered by the very same OpenSearch Client Libary for .NET that we offer to our customers. When searching on clarience.com you are interacting with a Live Demo of the component.
The following diagram illustrates a typical integration scenario:
Many internet search engines provide an OpenSearch compliant RSS feed. Here's a typical example for bing.com: http://api.bing.com/rss.aspx?source=web&query=OpenSearch 
.
On clarience.com, the OpenSearch Client Library is configured with a URL template. It makes a HTTP request to an OpenSearch compliant internet search engine for each search request and builds an object model to represent the response from the search engine. The results returned are formatted by our servers and presented on the search results page.
A key point to note is that, when using our library in this way, the user-interface and choice of search provider are entirely under your control.
Adding similar functionality to your own site can be accomplished with very little time and effort.
