I'm reminded of the built-in typeahead mechanism in Drupal - by default, it has a greyed-out spinner, which then turns blue and starts spinning while it's getting suggestions for the typeahead. I think that works really well both to show that it's a typeahead before the user starts typing, and that it's actually working. I believe it's implemented with a background-image in CSS, although I'd have to check up on that.
