David Watanabe finally has time off from his Inquisitor project to work on Xtorrent 2:

The last year has been crazy busy – Inquisitor got bought by Yahoo! and became the focus of my attention in the following months. It was eventually ported to two new browser platforms (IE and Firefox), and was also re-conceptualized as an iPhone app (all of which I’m proud of). For those months my time was under contract to Inquisitor, with side projects like Ski Lodge, NewsFire 1.6, and Safari140 squeezed into the weekends.

The consequence was that my core projects received less attention than they deserved. The good news is that time pressures have changed. Xtorrent is now my priority and after many months of teardown and reconstruction, the next major release of Xtorrent is imminent. Xtorrent 2 Website

Before Transmission, Xtorrent was the de facto torrent app on the Mac, with Azureus behind it. Maybe with the core changes and improvement of the search tool, it can reign again.
