The following uses jQuery UI Autocomplete, which has been included in WordPress since 3.3. (I've borrowed the format from **@Rarst** :D).

It's still not precisely what you're after, but gives you a good starting point. The following uses a the basic jQuery UI styling, but you can [use the one that's currently worked out on trac][1] and call that from your plug-in folder.

    class AutoComplete {
    	
    	static $action = 'my_autocomplete';//Name of the action - should be unique to your plugin.
    	
        static function load() {
            add_action( 'init', array( __CLASS__, 'init'));
        }
    	
        static function init() {
    		//Register style - you can create your own jQuery UI theme and store it in the plug-in folder
    		wp_register_style('my-jquery-ui','http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8/themes/base/jquery-ui.css'); 	
            add_action( 'get_search_form', array( __CLASS__, 'get_search_form' ) );
            add_action( 'wp_print_footer_scripts', array( __CLASS__, 'print_footer_scripts' ), 11 );
            add_action( 'wp_ajax_'.self::$action, array( __CLASS__, 'autocomplete_suggestions' ) );
            add_action( 'wp_ajax_nopriv_'.self::$action, array( __CLASS__, 'autocomplete_suggestions' ) );
        }
    
        static function get_search_form( $form ) {
            wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery-ui-autocomplete' );
    		wp_enqueue_style('my-jquery-ui');
            return $form;
        }
    
        static function print_footer_scripts() {
            ?>
        <script type="text/javascript">
        jQuery(document).ready(function ($){
    		var ajaxurl = '<?php echo admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' ); ?>';
    		var ajaxaction = '<?php echo self::$action ?>';
    		$("#secondary #searchform #s").autocomplete({
    			delay: 0,
    			minLength: 0,
    			source: function(req, response){  
    				$.getJSON(ajaxurl+'?callback=?&action='+ajaxaction, req, response);  
    			},
    			select: function(event, ui) {
    				window.location.href=ui.item.link;
    			},
    		});
    	});
        </script><?php
        }
    
        static function autocomplete_suggestions() {
            $posts = get_posts( array(
                's' => trim( esc_attr( strip_tags( $_REQUEST['term'] ) ) ),
            ) );
    		$suggestions=array();
    		
    		global $post;
    		foreach ($posts as $post): 
                        setup_postdata($post);
    			$suggestion = array();
    			$suggestion['label'] = esc_html($post->post_title);
    			$suggestion['link'] = get_permalink();
    			
    			$suggestions[]= $suggestion;
    		endforeach;
           
    		$response = $_GET["callback"] . "(" . json_encode($suggestions) . ")";  
            echo $response;  
    		exit;
        }
    }
    AutoComplete::load();
