DuckDuckGo URL scraper v0.0.1-beta

duckduckgo.py is a simple python module to scrape the duckduckgo search results. The ddg script can be used as a command line utility in a shell pipeline.

Warning!

This code is intended as a demonstration and, as all scraping utilities, should be used with great caution. By default the code will pause a few milliseconds each time it yields a result to avoid overloading the DDG servers.
