I was just playing with the Java API and I couldn't find a way to stream  
the data back, I only got the data in a Response/Hits objects in memory.

I was hoping to find an inputstream of JSON that I could just spit back to  
the response, or maybe in some situations send to jackson to translate into  
a pojo.
