Keep in mind that you are talking about creating concordances, not subject indexes. Subject indexes cannot be done automatically but require human analysis for substance and quality. For quality results, a good search will search both the text and the human-created index, thereby giving you both concordance findings as well as analysis for relations, alternative phrasing, etc., which concordances do not provide.

For more information, please visit the American Society for Indexing (ASI).
