Why? The most advanced open source projects depend heavily on outside sources. PostgreSQL is managed by git, borrowing from the Linux kernel development tools; one web site mirror is run on RackSpace; there's always a lot of reliance on uplinks and remote services. No point replicating what already exists! Leveraging (there, that's today's buzzword out of the way) Google Search rather than building your own is a smart move. Python used to have their own search facility, but it was recently pulled out in favour of Google (see http://www.python.org/search/ for example) because Google offer more functionality and faster response.
