Re: Query schema.org data?

It's somewhat outdated by now, but at Yahoo Labs we built an index over the WDC data which allows you to do structured queries:
http://glimmer.research.yahoo.com/

The method is described in the following publication:
Roi Blanco, Peter Mika, Sebastiano Vigna: Effective and Efficient Entity Search in RDF Data. International Semantic Web Conference (1) 2011: 83-97

The code is open source at:

Enjoy,Peter

I am not sure about use case: e.g. how much do you care about freshness?
Best bet is probably Google.- Yahoo doesn't have anything like this publicly available today.- I am not sure about Bing.
Sindice used to have something like that but has gone out of business as far as I understand. See [1] for a recap.
Did you look at Web Data Commons: [2] ? The structured data are extracted from the Common Crawl, openly licensed, and stored on S3 for convenience. One could build a stalled index on top of it if you care about random access and much about freshness?

Currently Custom Search would be your best bet w.r.t Google. Not sure
what the other engines do.
