you are getting there. I'd suggest goofing around in Futon before you start hacking from Java. if you have a smaller database (1000 docs or less) it can be pretty fast to play with temp_views. http://localhost:5984/_utils/index.html Create a database, then select View: Temp View from the menu on the database page. Then you can enter your javascript views directly. Once you have it working, you can see how it runs queries using firebug (or the couch log), and copy the urls to your browser directly to play with parameters.
