Adding arrays of objects using java update API and scripting

How do I use updateRequestBuilder.addScriptParam to add List/Arrays.

I want to replace "ctx._source.communities" with the list of maps called
"new_communities" but it always ends up as an empty array.

List<Map<String,Object>> communityMapList = new
ArrayList<Map<String,Object>>();

        for(CommunityRelationship community :

communitiesByTwitterUser.get(userId)){

            Map<String,Object> communityMap = new

HashMap<String,Object>();

            communityMap.put("communityId", community.getCommunityId());

            communityMap.put("communityName",

community.getCommunityName());

            communityMapList.add(communityMap);

        }           

        

        UpdateRequestBuilder updateRequestBuilder = client

.prepareUpdate(SearchFields.INDEX, SearchFields.USER_TYPE, userId)

                .addScriptParam("new_communities", communityMapList)

                .setConsistencyLevel(WriteConsistencyLevel.ALL)

                .setRetryOnConflict(10)

                .setScript("ctx._source.communities = new_communities");

I've figured out how to pass in a single community append but I'd really
like to pass in a list of communities.

This seems a simple thing to do using json (Just write out the string
[{"communityId":32,"communityName":"lukes_community"},[{"communityId":33,"communityName":"bills_community"}]
but I can't see how to pass this into the java api.

Any ideas?
