One option that worked very well for me is ultrasphinx.

  http://blog.evanweaver.com/files/doc/fauna/ultrasphinx/files/README.html

IIRC, 2 limitations of ultrasphinx are:

* new entries can only be found after reindexing
  (full reindexing or delta indexing)
* you need a separate sphinx process somewhere on a server
  (if you run a shared hosting system, this may be an issue)

If you can live with those 2 limitations, ultrasphinx is a very good candidate.

HTH,
