It should also be able to query 3 search engines, but not retrieve more than 20 results from each. And i should not attempt to modify the libraries to allow concurrent downloads. Problem is i do not know where to start, as this is kind of knew to me. Any suggestions please?

There are many free "search engines on your site" scripts out there, you might download a few and see how they are doing it. Now, if you need to store these results in a database, that's another story - but you still need the data collection first. Mostly what you'll need is some training or an associate skilled in some form of server side programming, such as PHP, Perl, or .asp.
