Check out jQuery.serialize(). It should give you an array of the usernames.

var users = $('input:text.users').serialize();

You can be however lazy or specific with the selector: .users,input.users,form .users would all work, plus a few more.

For this example:

// users = 
username[]=test1&username[]=test2&username[]=test3

Which, depending on your server-side technology, will come through in the request as an array of strings for the key “username” (PHP, for example).
