I'm a maintainer of googler (though I haven't put in much work for quite a while) and the author of the linked document. No, it doesn't use a screen scraper, and I don't know how you even got that idea.
Is this perhaps a semantics issue? The linked document mentions parsing HTML, and that layout updates can break it. How would you describe the way googler operates?
Edit: Would ”web scraping” be a more apt description?
