[Air-L] software for recording search results?

[Charles M. Ess]

Dear AoIR-ists,

A Master's student is comparing search results on ca. 120 key search 
terms in two different national locations.  The student is building on a 
considerable body of often quite sophisticated analyses along these 
lines - but by people with access to programmers and/or who can build 
the code they want / need themselves.

What the student wants to do is simply record the first, e.g., 10 or 20 
hits in response to a given key search term.
Beyond taking screen shots and pushing the results into a spreadsheet 
for (relatively simple) analysis -
does anyone have recommendations for available software that might be 
more directly helpful with this sort of data collection and recording?

Will look forward to any advice and suggestions you can offer - many 
thanks in advance,
- charles
