Look at the options 
    --png -dpreview -dno-print-pages -dno-include-book-title-preview
in the page
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/usage/Command_002dline-usage#Command-line-options-for-lilypond

That can be used to print the first line in a PNG file that you can use for
indexing. If you insist on the 20 notes, you could always force a carriage 
return
in the right place when you're generating the incipits.

Good luck
