 Yes, you may need to write your own parse, indexer and searcher plugins,
however, I am currently working on getting the parse-xml plugin into the
Nutch sources. The parse-xml plugin includes an indexing filter for the
fields that are extracted by the xml parser. The XML parser is configurable
to custom schemas and fields that need to be extracted.

 This plugin is available currently in JIRA, attached to this issue:

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-185

I am working hard to get this plugin ported to the latest trunk source, and
ready to be committed to the sources. I hope to attach a patch within the
next week that brings this plugin up to date, and gets the code ready for
prime-time (formatting, public javadocs, etc.). Once I attach the patch, you
may find that you only need to write your searcher plugin. Then again, in
the interest of time, you may go the route for writing your own set of
plugins. In that case, you can find examples of how to write the
parse/index/query plugins, by looking at the Nutch source, in subversion,
available here:

Parse plugins: 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/nutch/trunk/src/plugin/parse-*
Index plugins: 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/nutch/trunk/src/plugin/index-*
Query plugins: 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/nutch/trunk/src/plugin/query-*

I think that you could do this with Nutch, and if you do, for free, you get:

Crawling
Parsing/Indexing
Search Webapp, and RSS based OpenSearch servlet

You could also do this with Lucene, but I think you may find that you end up
maintaining more code, and having to rewrite existing functionality
available within Nutch.

Just my 2 cents...

Cheers,
