Mitch is right, what you're looking for here is a recommendation
engine, if I understand your question properly.
And yes, Mahout should work though the Taste recommendation engine it
supports is pretty new. But Sean Owen & Robin Anil have a "Mahout in
Action" book that's in early release via Manning, and it has lots of
good information about Mahout & recommender systems.
Assuming you have a list of recommendations for a given user, based on
their past behavior and the recommendation engine, then you could use
this to adjust search results. I'm waiting for Hoss to jump in here on
how best to handle that :)
