Isn't this because the index that the api uses is (a lot) older than
the index used by www.google.com? total results are always estimated,
so they are not reliable (seen the variance)

Producing a SERPS scraper for Google would be very easy and possible in about 10-15 lines of code. However, its against the Google terms of service and if they decide to bite you for breaching them then you'll be in trouble. Its also a reason you'll not likely find one that trumpets its existence
the google webservices (aka google API) is not even close for any kind
of real use yet
if you search for the same term 10 times, you get 3 mixed totals. 2
mixed result order. and one or two "502 bad gateway"
i did an extensive match agains the API and the regular search
service. the most average
