I just checked and it's on brew, so you can just run if you have HomeBrew: brew install sphinx.

What wasn't obvious from those instructions was that the main executables would be found in /usr/local/bin/searchd and /usr/local/bin/indexer... I was a bit puzzled after install when I couldn't find anything sphinx in /usr/local/bin.
