To get a list of the package names (as used by apt/aptitude):
Code:
grep Package: /var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.maemo.nokia.com*_ovi_._Packages
If you want the full names as well (you'll need grep-gnu installed):
Code:
/usr/bin/gnu/egrep Package:\|Description: /var/lib/apt/lists/downloads.maemo.nokia.com*_ovi_._Packages

Assuming you don't want to ONLY search Ovi store apps, you can just do something like:

apt-cache search bounce

Edit: Oh I see you're basically trying to list the apps in the Ovi store...
