I need this to get a list of versions available for an artifact. I
want to do it the same way maven does to avoid inconsistencies, so the
index is not an option.

What's the full use case?
People typically use the search with the index to find all the
available versions to, say, select a specific version of commons-
logging. This is for the IDE and is specific to that environment.
The indexing API will be exposed in a package at Mevenide and not in
the embedder, but that is the way users have generally been seeing
all versions and that's how users interact with the artifact
selection process. It's far easier using the index which is 300k
zipped for the entire repository.
