Searching has several uses. 1) Increases the player's detection range. 2) Allows the player to see monsters/players in hiding. 3) If I understand correctly, the skill comes with a feature that allows tracking players.

The eavesdropping skill is a completely different one. I believe it's called Straining or something.
