You might want to take a step back and see if it wouldn't be easier to write your own custom version, rather than trying to swim upstream to this degree. Autocompleter is meant to deal with an indeterminate number of possible responses, and to continuously filter the results as you type, until only a few matches remain. It sounds to me more like your requirement is a different animal entirely.
In looking at the documentation page, I see a couple of things you could cobble together to try to get what you're after, though. Perhaps a mixture of a custom callback function, updateElement function, and a judicious use of the span.informal method (to create your previous / next links without influencing the actual results of the Autocompleter) could do the trick. But it looks to be nearly as much work as making a simpler Ajax search panel that auto-updates and pages result sets.
