The maximum number of results that can be obtained from this api is 8. You can do that by adding "&rsz=large" to your url as below.

$url = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&rsz=large&q=".$query;

To get more than 8 results, you need to perform the above operation twice by adding another parameter called "start" which is zero index based. So for the first page of results the $url must be,

$url = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&rsz=large&start=0&q=".$query;

For the second page it will be,

$url = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&rsz=large&start=8&q=".$query;
