There is no direct support in OpenLayers for this -- this is in the Pleiades development that Sean Gilles has worked on. (I'd never seen that page before today.) The search results in http://developers.metacarta.com/gallery/item/cambridgema.gov/geosearch.html are delivered using JSON, as an example of something that does use JSON for transport of geoinformation -- but this is also not built into OpenLayers, but part of a MetaCarta specific extension. You can browse that format, and a number of our other formats for delivering geographic content via JSON, at http://developers.metacarta.com/explorer/ . These include gazetteer lookups, query parsing, and geotagging.
