I'm a bit busy these days... But I'll get to investigate this search engine. Anything that might improve your privacy on the net is worth that.
They say in their privacy policy that:

IP Addresses
The IP address that is associated with your search will NOT be recorded.
The only exception is for abusive (automated) queriers that rapidly submit many queries to Ixquick in a very short time.

If that is indeed true, it is an excellent start.
But the exception does have a somewhat bitter taste. How can they determine the search is abusive from a certain IP address if they don't already have a record of it?
I'll dig further into it when I have more time. But that little part lowers expectations a lot...
