Exam.should_receive(:by_created_at_and_not_archived).and_return(
  double('startkey').tap {|startkey|
    startkey.should_receive(:startkey).with([@exam.created_at]).and_return(
      double('endkey').tap {|endkey|
        endkey.should_receive(:endkey).with(['0']).and_return(
          double('limit').tap {|limit|
            limit.should_receive(:limit).with(2).and_return([@exam1, @exam2])
          }
        )
      }
    )
  }
)

LOL, this is the ugliest code I've written all year. You'd might want to use 
variables for readability:

endkey = double('endkey')

startkey = double('startkey')
startkey.should_receive(:start key).with([@exam.created_at]) { endkey }
