Inject multiple service implementations with Castle Windsor

Question

I would like to have Windsor inject multiple implementations of a service to a constructor.

My scenario is that I have multiple search providers that implement a common interface. I would like to register each of these with windsor and then inject them into my search service so it can query each on in turn.

Is such a thing possible with Windsor? Is there a better approach than injecting multiple implementations into the constructor?

See Inversion of Control and Dependency Injection with Castle Windsor Container - Part II at DotNetSlackers. It shows how to pass an array of the same service interface to an object.
