Rewrite catalogsearch_result_index from config.xml

Question

I want to rewrite /catalogsearch/result/index/?q=querystring to a custom url /search/querystring.

For this I have created a custom module and in config.xml added below code :

<global>
        <rewrite>
            <custom_module>
                <from><![CDATA[/search\/(.*)/]]></from>
                <to><![CDATA[catalogsearch/result/index/$1]]></to>
                <complete>1</complete>
            </custom_module>
        </rewrite>
 ...       
</global>

This rewrite code is working and rewrite to /search/?q=querystring. But I want to rewrite to /search/querystring. For this I am trying below code :

<global>
        <rewrite>
            <custom_module>
                <from><![CDATA[/search\/(.*)/]]></from>
                <to><![CDATA[catalogsearch/result/index/?q=$1]]></to>
                <complete>1</complete>
            </custom_module>
        </rewrite>
 ...       
</global>

But this code redirect url /search/querystring to home page.
