Yes, Lucene is an API. You'd have to write a significant amount of code to accomplish what you want. The Lucene demo would be a good place to start.
Lucene by itself doesn't index anything. You have to design a schema, feed it data and search that data. You can make it index file names, dates, sizes, whatever by coding appropriately. Lucene has nothing to do with a web presentation layer, so you'd also have to write a web application to have a web interface. I'm not familiar with any out-of-the-box products that do what you want, but then I haven't looked.
