Fabio, while chaining map/reduce views sounds useful, we found it easy to work 
around it by updating our documents with the derived data. Subsequent views can 
use that derived information in your documents. This also breaks down your 
chain into well-defined steps, which you can apply to your documents by 
iterating over the view / _all_docs and updating them.

If you still think your problem is best solved by chaining them, look at 
BigCouch Chained MapReduce Views [1] which has a somewhat restricted 
implementation of what you want by allowing you to save the output of a view as 
documents into another document (similar as if you were to replicate a view 
output into a database, something you also can't do with vanilla Apache 
CouchDB).
