This is somewhat of an issue in Drupal, and frankly you might consider
filing a bug against core for this, if one doesn't already exist. The
only way to ultimately remove that form from that page is to modify
search.module (*%^@&^!!!!)
See:
http://api.drupal.org/api/function/search_view/5
http://api.drupal.org/api/function/search_view
If you look at the bottom of those functions you'll see:
$output = drupal_get_form('search_form', NULL, $keys, $type);
$output .= $results
In other words, do not pass go, do not ask the user, do not theme this
page (except using a page template(which doesn't help)), and you get
the form no matter what.
You can however, disable the advanced portion of the search by
visiting the Access Control page under User Management in the
Administer section of your site.
