you need a wrapper around htdig to run it on the shell. It is probably best if
you check the solutions for php, as your situation is somewhat similar. The
basic layout:
1) get a shell wrapper going that uses the env. variable 'QUERY_STRING' to
send the query to htdig.
2) start htdig from your app. server using whatever mechanism it provides to
start shell scripts (SSI can do this too).

have the app server add a paramter to the query that will limit the
search results.
(btw. I posted some stuff for php a few days back. it may help
you to get started. In particular the shell script should be usefull)
