Not really, a simple CGI app would be suffficient. A framework is really only needed where you have lots of pages all with the same look n feel and lots of interaction between them. If all you need is a query screen and a results screen then basic CGI should be more than adequate. If you really want more then look at basic CherryPy rather than TurboGears/Django. It takes the CGI pains away while keeping the code simple and direct. TurboGears and Django are both excellent but the learning curve for a simple app is more than the gain IMHO. OTOH If you want to build knowledge for the future then pick one and go with it. It doesn't much matter which they all use the same principles its only syntax differences really.
