Howdy,

Is there a way to store "by-product" data someplace where it can be read? For example, as I'm iterating over a collection of documents, I want to generate some statistics about the collection, put those stats "someplace" that can be accessed during future map-reduce cycles. Should I simply run a "faux" map-reduce cycle to count the information and store it in a known location in the DFS?

Well, yeah, but you don't have to use map-reduce to enter things into the DFS. You can just as well use the command line too, or even access the DFS directly from within another Java application.
