A first step towards solving this problem (but I don't see how: it's a custom search, it can't be equal to the original) is to add a bit more honesty, or transparency if you please, to the default home page.

Right below the search field, a phrase could be added like "this is a custom search. We put it here because we think it is [link to whatever reasons you like|useful]. If you want a standard search instead, you can click [link that sets the home page to www.google.[LANGUAGE] | here".

What about this?

Also, a problem is that results come from the english web site. Users will notice getting very different results. That's a google "feature" and we can't do anything about it, but at least giving some hint to users will lead to discoverability of a solution, for those who may consider this annoying.
