If you have the user and comment as separate docs (with the user_id in the comment doc), then the simple way is to update the user doc each time s/he makes a comment with a count of the comments so far. Conflict resolution is a no-op since the user is likely the only one updating his/her doc at any given time. It's trivial then to have a view sorted by #comments as the key and you can get the top-10 that way.
