Hide & Seek does this by blocking cookies with a Safari content blocker extension.

The app is great, and the design is pleasantly simplistic. I took off a star because: 1) In Google (and Bing) search results, you must "open in new tab" -- otherwise, you will be tracked. I don't see any reason why the anti-tracking stuff shouldn't be able to work on the same tab. 2) The app is very limited, only working for Google and Bing, and even then not blocking cookies like most conventional ad-blockers do.
