Hi,

I was wondering the same exact thing and I found that you can use Web
Search Specific Arguments (see [1]) and in particular the argument lr?

What I did was to pass this parameter with value "lang_de" for German
to the Google Search engine like this:

http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&lr=lang_de&q=wikipedia

what I get is a list of results that make reference to pages written
in that language. It's not entirely the same as searching in Google.de
but I think it's a good start. Does anybody know whether this is
actually the same? I mean, should it be same?

hope it helps,

Gaston
