Why? The most advanced open source projects depend heavily on outside
sources. PostgreSQL is managed by git, borrowing from the Linux kernel
development tools; one web site mirror is run on RackSpace; there's
always a lot of reliance on uplinks and remote services. No point
replicating what already exists!
Leveraging (there, that's today's buzzword out of the way) Google
Search rather than building your own is a smart move. Python used to
have their own search facility, but it was recently pulled out in
favour of Google (see http://www.python.org/search/ for example)
because Google offer more functionality and faster response.
