I've attached up what I hope is a minimally sufficient user-level API to 
start implementing.  The idea is to include only what's required, like 
facet counts, but otherwise keep it simple.

First I'll implement a completely synchronous version, then write the 
simulator/tester.  Once that's working, we can start designing a 
threaded, pseudo-distributed version, that implements the interfaces in 
two layers: a "client-side" layer that transparently retries, etc., and 
a "server-side" layer that might be flaky, throwing exceptions, hanging, 
etc. and where servers chat amongst themselves.
