Full-Text Alternative for InnoDB?

As a PHP developer, I was recently hired with a company that has several medium-sized websites they've developed. As what I describe, from their point of view, a "small side project" they have asked me to improve upon their existing search engine which currently uses the "LIKE" keyword to search database records. However I need to find a way to measure the relevance or search-term recurrence in each individual record.

Any ideas how I can handle this, without a lot of time and effort? I was hoping to use FULLTEXT matching until I discovered that their existing databases are all InnoDB, which as I understand does not support FULLTEXT indexing and searches.

I'm scratching my head pretty good on this one.
