I want to extend the search results when I am searching sites. My Query is WebTemplate:MySiteDefinition and it results is like in the following picture

enter image description here

By the other hand, I have a timer job that calculates in a list the number of documents created or modified in the past 15 days.

Now, what I need to do is that these results became something like this: enter image description here

As you can see, I need the title, logo description of the page (these 3 fields no problem to customize), last documents, pending tasks and an icon that creates an entry in CustomFavourites list in each My Site. The problem comes here. How can I modify the behaviour of the Search Results WebPart to have my desired look and feel?.

Which will be the best approach? Making a WebPart that inherits from CoreResultsWebPart, ContentBySearchWebPart? I am stucked on this.

If you are doing this in the 2013 Enterprise Search Center you can do all this with a display template. You will probably have to use JQuery to perform the secondary lookup to your custom list.

Download the display template and customize it as per your needs. Add the columns you want the search to display in the display template and upload it.
