FoxTrot Professional Search will find and search the contents of the .skim file in a pdf bundle (.pdfd) created with Skim. You can also search for files whose names contain .skim (ie the notes file in a pdfd bundle) and this will pull up all the .skim files you have.
I expect the lower priced FoxTrot Personal Search will also do this, though I haven't checked. I'm not sure that either will find the notes in an ordinary pdf file annotated with Skim, though you may want to play around with it. To use FoxTrot you set it up to index selected folders (or your whole drive) first. You can then do elaborate searches of file names, contents or metadata.
