This gem restricts its hits to Google Scholar as much as possible, but be forewarned that their page may restrict your hits if it starts to hit it too much. There is no built in rate limiter to this gem.

gem 'google-scholar'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install google-scholar

results = Google::Scholar::Base.search_author("author name")
