I am trying to implement a restful web service that lets the client search search users by passing in search criteria.

The problem here is there is a that i dont want the limit the size of my input. So a GET mite be out of question. SO how do you think i should build this Restful service.

E.g lets say i am trying to build a User search service.

TIA
