Warp (Ocásek) Search Engine
A self-hosted private and anonymous metasearch engine, that aims to be more resource effichent and scalable than its competetion. Its scalable becouse switching instances when one just decides to not work/is under too much load is just inconvenient. So you can comfortably use officiall instance, or self-host your own instance.

[1]: I was not able to check this since their site does not work, same for the community instances.
[2]: In the project repo they specify that it has API, but It looks like they are no loger supporting it. Or just removed "API" button and documentation, since I was not able to find it anymore.
