I have; you can see the results at http://www.eit.com/.
Unfortunately I haven't released the code just yet (I want to check out
the new freeWAIS), and I want to add some new features (currently you
can specify different indexes/ports in the URL for the WAIS server,
so you can search multiple databases through it).
Also, I believe you can get a similar gateway that
Ari Luotonen at CERN wrote - it's somewhere on http://www.cern.ch/.
