In your DocumentType add a field "includeInSearchIndex" of type true/false. Then add this field in your Examine index configuration

<IndexUserFields>
  <add Name="includeInSearchIndex"/>
</IndexUserFields>

Then use a create a custom query to search for everything where this field is not checked.

var Searcher = ExamineManager.Instance.SearchProviderCollection["WebsiteSearcher"];            
var query = searchCriteria.Field("includeInSearchIndex", "0").
    Or().Field("includeInSearchIndex", "").Compile();
var searchResults = Searcher.Search(query);

If you want to exclude a node type just put this between the IndexSet tag

<IndexSet ...>
  ...
  <ExcludeNodeTypes>
    <add Name="NameNodeType" />
  </ExcludeNodeTypes>
</IndexSet>
