The first issue is that you appear to be using the Web Search API, which was deprecated years ago and is currently scheduled to be shut down soon (read the notes sections on the top): https://developers.google.com/web-search/docs/ . You'll need to migrate to using the Custom Search API: https://developers.google.com/custom-search/docs/tutorial/introduction

For filtering by dates, you can use the dateRestrict property listed here: https://developers.google.com/custom-search/json-api/v1/reference/cse/list#request
