This class is the parent for all access method supported by the WWW::Search library. This library implements a Perl API to web-based search engines. Current search engines supported include AltaVista (both web and news), Dejanews, Excite (web only), HotBot (web only), Infoseek (e-mail, web, and news) and Lycos. Search results are limited and there is a pause between each request for results to avoid overloading either the client or the server. WWW: http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=WWW-Search
