Well, maybe it's not a viable solution, but Word document is a ZIP file with a lot of plain text files inside, so if you know the format, you can store the words the document contains.
The option I will implement would be sending the document, storing it in datastore, enqueue a task to re-send it to my account of google docs.+ Then you can use GData as before suggested to query words through your documents. You can even store them in different categories to simulate "filters".
