it is strictly impossible to predict that cause of network load, server load, query complexity .... i recommend you put an activity widget, something moving (ie throbber in wxPython) while waiting for the result (like the rotating circle in firefox). once query is finished stop your moving stuff, so the user knows it's completed. So you don't need a progress bar, but an activity widget. in gtk, i saw that progress bar could be put in activity mode. And don't forget to add a timeout ...
