obtain user statistics associated with the user, wherein the one or more search result cards are generated in real-time based on the user statistics.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the search result cards generating module comprises:

an index portion generating module configured to generate an index portion for each of the one or more search result cards based on the behavior history data associated with the user; and
