Install dconf-tools sudo apt-get install dconf-tools then run dconf-editor. Go to desktop/unity/lenses/applications and uncheck display available apps.

enter image description here

Lets hope they make this easier in future versions.

    In Ubuntu 13.04, I was able to simply type "dconf" in the Dash and the proper app appeared, no need to install the software first. Also, Dconf is also available in the Software Center if command line installs aren't your cup of tea. – AJD0652 May 11 '13 at 20:19

In Ubuntu 14.04, without any installations, just run 

gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Lenses remote-content-search 'none'
