I want to search the mediawiki database and get the page with the closest match to my search text. For example, on entering the search string "igor stravinsky persephone" I want to get a link to this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pers%C3%A9phone_%28Stravinsky%29
The following query /w/api.php?action=query&list=search&format=xml&srsearch=igor%20stravinsky%20persephone&srlimit=1 almost gets what I want but the data returns does not include the pageid:
<p ns="0" title="Perséphone (Stravinsky)" snippet="(<span class='searchmatch'>Persephone</span> ) is a musical work (mélodrame) for speaker, solo singers, chorus, dancers and orchestra with music by <span class='searchmatch'>Igor</span> <span class='searchmatch'>Stravinsky</span> and a <b>...</b> " size="2500" wordcount="313" timestamp="2012-05-13T07:21:00Z" />
Is this the right way to go about it? Is the title returned a unique ID which I can use to get more detail of the page?
Query it as a generator: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&generator=search&for...
Unfortunately, that discards all meta data provided by the search query module.

Thanks - is there any way I can perform a search and get the page URLs in a single query?
