Search engines don't have a concrete way of determining whether a site is optimized for mobile, tablet or desktop. We may see that if standards are adhered to then it may be possible in the future.

Exactly as John says. Also keep in mind that while you can detect for domains at m. / mobile. / wap. etc you cant pick up if the site is responsive or not.

You used to be able to do this at google.com/m until recently and they have now removed the service....

It would give search results with a mobile phone icon next to any sites which it detected a mobile sitemap or redirect for.

Not sure if there is anything else out there now that would do the same however if anyone finds one I'd love to know.

Use Google's keyword tool, then click on mobile results instead of desktop (under advanced).

Hey whitestarlight
At the present time search engines do not offer any service to search for mobile sites, they are offering mobile apps searching support that you can change from "more" drop down list of menu bar. As per my knowledge there are no scripts for searching mobile versions of websites.

You can try the following search queries on Google:

"weight loss" + "view full site"
inurl:weightloss + "view full site"
"weight loss" + "mobile version"

and

"mobile website directories"

Just to give you some ideas.
