I'd recommend ext.js, http://extjs.com/ it not only handles ajax for you but also has abstracted several components away like jsonreader, datastore, datagrid, etc, etc, which can be used in a very modular way. And it has very cool GUI components too. The documentation is great which I find one of the most compelling arguments for using it.
