You could just use a trie for the tokens and implement 
Levenshtein-Damerau fuzzy matching on that. That is a fun 
exercise to do. The next fun exercise is to abstract it in a way

(Fun fact: I've just read a bunch of suggestions for how to do 
this as I am spending my holiday grading exams in text search... 
:-P Ok, not so fun...)
