Google Custom Search Engine seems to something like this, though I only 
use it in the mode where results are presented on a Google page.  One of 
the options in the code section of the control panel is to host the 
results on your page using an iframe.  It isn't an XML api, but you 
should be able to at least keep it all within your chrome.
