I was unimpressed. It clearly is not threat to Google. I think that it would be okay to use as a source for Mahalo.

I wouldn't have a problem with someone using Wolfram as a source for Mahalo, largely because Wolfram Alpha themselves cite their sources.

It seems useful, but for a very narrow form of searching. I could see this tool being built in to a larger search engine, but as a stand-alone site, it's very limited.
