Is that one definitely scraping bittorrent DHT? From what I can tell it looks like it used for scraping IPFS DHT via HTTP. Been a bit since I tinkered with IPFS but I do know services exist to scrape the IPFS DHT, this might be one of the backend tools being used for that.

Why not run your own scraper?
https://bitmagnet.io/ (probably the simplest)
https://github.com/seik/stilio
https://github.com/AlphaReign/scraper
https://github.com/alanshaw/libp2p-dht-scrape-aas
https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico & a cli search utility for it: https://sr.ht/~rakoo/magneticos/
Is this significantly different from the QBitTorrent search engine?

That’s really cool!
I have a few questions
How much configuration is required so that it successfully finds all the high quality torrents?
How long do I need to keep it running to find existing quality torrents?
How resource intensive is the program?
I have a hitch there must be extra steps so make the data reliable but who knows ,
Not sure that is one of their official domains? https://solidtorrents.eu and https://solidtorrents.to seem to be up at the moment - but you’re right their uptime has been spotty.
As an alternative you could always check if https://bitsearch.to is up, that site is run by the same admin and shares the same torrent database AFAIK.
I don’t know if the site admin is around on Lemmy, they are (or used to be) on Reddit.
