Well, that was an easy one ;)
(defun search-word ()
(interactive)
(browse-url
(concat "http://foo.bar.foobar/index.php?search="
(read-from-minibuffer "Word: "))))
If you really want to store the value into a variable do this:
(defun search-word ()
"Search for a word in foo bar"
(interactive)
(let ((word (read-from-minibuffer "Word: ")))
(browse-url
(concat "http://foo.bar.foobar/index.php?search=" word))))
