Edwin Groothuis 76c4796b2b maintainer-update WWW for cpan from /search?dist=module to /dist/module
portsurvey seems to time out on the old style
	http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=module, so this is a
	good time to convert all my ports to the new
	http://search.cpan.org/dist/module format.

This class is the parent for all access method supported
by the WWW::Search library. This library implements a
Perl API to web-based search engines.
Current search engines supported include AltaVista (both
web and news), Dejanews, Excite (web only), HotBot (web
only), Infoseek (e-mail, web, and news) and Lycos.
Search results are limited and there is a pause between
each request for results to avoid overloading either the
client or the server.
