Another suggestion - in case developing gets boring or you have nothing else to do.. ;)

The easynews global search. It's just for members but it has the absolute advantage that's also quite a challenge:
While listing every search result, it also provides thumbnails for each search hit (mouse-over popups & linked). This way you can easily discard fakes (WMV mostly). Passworded crap does of course not even show up due to the way easynews handles the files.
In case my standard procedure hits on passworded files, I switch to easynews global search, pick out the proper target and let me generate an NZB that I let altbinz process.

Well, I don't really expect you to take this challenge, since it would mean a whole lot of work other than "just" add yet another seach provider... but I'd really amazed if you do:)

Aaah, spotnet is seen as the successor to FTD, spotnet stores it posts in a newsgroup and checks them for a specific signature in order to prevent spam

Interesting. Which newsgroup, and how exactly are they signed and posted?

Uses an XML based format etc,
Quote
- Haal de headers op uit free.pt
- Parse de gegevens uit de headers
- Toon ze in een overzicht

for example:

Yah, a load of dutch, tl;dr :P

If someone could explain the signing method and point to the xml spec, we might make some progress.

Much requested but still not implemented - is there any reason why we can't get nzbmatrix for one of the search engines?

Most of the time I use good old BinsSearch. It is fast, index most of the groups and it list up to 900 days.
Also the intergration into AltBinz is great. You can use al sort of search options (size, retention, nfo etc.)
Best of it that it's (still) free with no registration.

My top 3 would be:
1. BinSearch
2. nzbIndex
3. YabSearch
I can see what you see not, vision milky then eyes rot.
When you turn they will be gone, whispering their hidden song.
Then you see what cannot be, shadows move where light should be.
Out of darkness, out of mind, cast down into the halls of the blind.
