Stemming is ok. That's fine.
How would this normally be implemented? Should I go through my text word by
word myself, or the already existing index and copy over to a new table? Not
sure how this would be managable. Every change to something would require a
word count down, and then a word up after.
I wouldn't bother keeping it 100% up-to-date. You only want the
most-plausible suggestions anyway. Have a look at the ts_stat() function.

Run it overnight, and summarise to a separate table, then just use
"like" against it.
Otherwise, like you say, your database will spend most of its time
adding up word counts etc.
