A free, easy and initial starting point may be to consider Google tools?

For example a url-link for a google 'site search' in 'wonderwheel' view? 

For eg, taking ANU as an example, i think the following link may provide
something like what you are seeking in an app, Anthony, in part, anyway?

<http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&tbo=1&tbs=ww%3A1&q=site%
3A+anu.edu.au&btnG=Search>

Just a starting thought, for something you can use now, to clarify ideas?

Cheers,
Stephen
