I tried to use ZCatalog without Zope, but failed.
Some classes depend on Acquisition. What data types
do you want to index? 

If you need full text search, try ZCTextIndex. I think it can be used
without Zope. 

You can use IndexedCatalog.

I build a small index myself. It can store
simple strings (no full text search),
list of strings (keyword match), dates,
floats, bools and integers.
I can send you the code, if you are interested.
