1. A method for analyzing information within a database comprising a plurality of records having one or more data element types and one or more data element values, comprising:
identifying, in the database, unique data element types; generating a plurality of initial data structure corresponding to the unique data element types, wherein the plurality of initial data structures comprise representations of unique data element values associated with the corresponding unique data element type; generating a final data structure based on one or more records of the plurality of records, wherein the final data structure is based upon the data element values included in the one or more records and the data element values represented in the plurality of initial data structures; determining first information relating to first data to be retrieved from the final data structure; determining second information relating to second data to be retrieved from a source external to the final data structure, wherein the second information comprises identifying information relating to the location and specification of the second data; and providing search results relevant to a search query based on the first information and the second information.
