I was wondering what could be the best solution for the following requirement:
On a CMS Web site, I need to research, based on Free text keyword, articles created in Sitecore. Those articles are Sitecore Items created in a specific folder structure.
Is Lucene the best option to retrieve any article based on the Free Text? The articles have to be appear on the screen based on two options: By Date or by ranking (Number of time the Free text keyword appear in the article) Is there any other options?

Lucene is definitely your best option, since it is already used by Sitecore and makes integration much easier.
There is a very good article and walk-through on Lucene:
But it would be better to use the Advanced Database Crawler:
