What is this Android Widget called?

That is a custom component specific to the search app.

The only API which is similar would be the QuickContact class. It provides a similar contextual popup for actions related to a contact (e.g., call, SMS, email, etc.).

You can use third-party libraries such as GreenDroid for similar functionality.
