Torrent Search Engine for Private Trackers?

Does it exist? Link please?

[shipwreck]

Would totally ridicule the concept of 'private', innit?

Haha, so true, but I think he wants to search all his private trackers at once.

Although it is possible, its not really sustainable. Assuming that some one could get an account on all the private trackers, on the more closed sites, the search engine would be lucky to have 1 account to search with. The search engine has to have an active account to get the most up to date searches for each site. It would be very easy for a site moderator/owner to search on the public engine, and find which account is searching that term on their site, and disable it. Unless the tracker is insecure, this really isn't a viable idea.

Ok, after writing all of that, I suppose they wouldn't have to search each site, they could just index all the torrents themselves into a database, then search to that instead of each site. But then the seed/leech stats would not be up to date... Of course they'd have to remove their announce key from each torrent... I dunno, seems like a lot of work for....what exactly...?

BTjunkie searches a number of private torrent sites. The search results will show a lock icon and the name of the site/tracker next to each private torrent.

BTJunkie also steals passkeys.

The 'Torrent Harvester' should be able to do this. At least in the past it was.
