I've thought about this before (well many people have). NYTimes.com is taking user's submitted searches and feeding those search results to a feature called "Also Try". This is similar to Google's "Similar Pages", but the system operates on the last week of user submitted queries. Looks like nytimes.com has a lot of interesting things going on.

While you're here, checkout NYTime's blog about open source technologies written by it's developers. There's a lot of interesting topics like their thoughts on microformats and metadata.
