I have a Java program, and it needs to listen for and handle requests sent to it via AJAX and respond.
Are there any libraries that handle this? If not how would I handle this myself with sockets?

Ajax works on the http protocol and to handle the call, something such as a webserver would be required. The below links describe about few java servers:

The following link has the complete code of implementation from the scratch if you would like to:
