use XML like this:

<layout version="0.1.0">
<catalogsearch_result_index>
    <reference name="product_list_toolbar">
        <action method="addPagerLimit"><mode>grid</mode><limit>30</limit></action>
        <action method="addPagerLimit"><mode>list</mode><limit>30</limit></action>

 <action method="setDefaultGridPerPage"><limit>30</limit></action>
    </reference>
</catalogsearch_result_index>
</layout>
