What is the best way to export and index all content of lithium into a third party search engine ? so it will be available for search through that search engine ?

While you can use the REST API to grab all data out of the community, I was recently reminded that this was not designed as an export tool :smileywink: . It might be best to have the community crawled using standard search engine methodologies. However, for updates I was recently introduced to the Event API. This allows you to subscribe to events such as when messages are created or updated. The community will invoke a callback that tells your code about the changed thread. From those updates you can feed the new details into your index.
More details on the Event API can be found at http://lithosphere.lithium.com/t5/Customer-Connection-Private/Subscribing-to-community-events-using-the-REST-API/ta-p/14785 .
