Submitting search query to Yahoo Web Search from Ruby on Rails app

Question

I want to perform a search query from my rails app, which uses the Yahoo Web Search service, and parse the response from the yahoo api, and populate the database based on this response.

I wanted to know how can I go about submitting this query from my app in rails. And also, if there are any gems which let you do the same?

Thanks!

The BOSSMan gem created by Jay Pignata should work.
