I'll try to explain this in my limited geek knowledge...I believe running a search takes a large strain on the cpu so the software limits the search to one every minute or so. It basically stops the site from crashing.

I'm pretty sure Nikh is on the right track - as it would be possible to overload the server and cause it to crash by running lots of simultanious search strings on different computers...
