I don't know for sure if this is what you're looking for, but I may
have solved the problem you're looking at. Look at the module
site_user_list, which implements a form that allows you to search the
list of users, and displays the results.

Also, you might want to look at:
http://www.lullabot.com/articles/
drupal_5_making_forms_that_display_their_own_results

which describes another way to achieve the same kind of result.
