They've deprecated the "Web Search API", but replaced it with the "Google Custom Search API" (which requires an API key): http://code.google.com/apis/customsearch/docs/dev_guide.html

Huge difference between the two, unfortunately. The CSE is made for specific websites, not web-wide search. And it's limited to 100 queries (more if you ask for it, but still limited) per day per key. Compare that to the previous unlimited search api!
