Similar to #162 we could support an exact string/word comparison algorithm which operates similar to the official OFAC Sanctions List Search for all lists.

Given "Breaking Wave DB Limited" and "BIRIN LIMITED",

An “exact match” would imply a 0% match or 100% match for each word?
Breaking=0% Wave=0% DB=0% Limited=100%
So that’s a 25% match?

We need to probably sort the index and query so we can work around missing / mis-ordered terms in the query. Perhaps filter out short words and/or stopwords.

"Breaking Web Limited" wouldn't match 100%.
"Breaking DB Web Limited" should match 100%
