There are a few examples and tools that operate with the protocol
directly, without any wallet.
Classes to look at are Peer and PeerGroup, and the entire Message hierarchy.

Just started looking at bitcoinj. I am familiar with the bitcoin data
structure, and want to write applications that analyze the blockchain
data, so I am looking for a library that lets me interact with the
bitcoin protocol directly. Does bitcoinj have that capability or is it
only a higher level library for managing wallets? For my first
prototype I intend to load the first 5000 blocks and compute for myself
how many satoshi’s are at each address. I have already found the
getGenesisBlock method on the NetworkParameters class, but am having
trouble finding out how to get the next block without creating a
WalletAppKit and loading the previous 2,104,841 blocks off the test net
from the BlockStore. That seems like the wrong direction. I am hoping
someone already familiar with bitcoinj can point me in the right
direction regarding which classes I should be looking at first, without
all the noise of capabilities I don’t need at the moment.
