I have Java and Flash client applications. What is the best way for the two to communicate without special Flash-specific servers such as BlazeDS or Red5? I am looking for a light client-only solution.

Well, you can make http requests from flash to any url… so if your java server has a point where it can listen to incoming requests and process XML or JSON, your flash client can just make the request to that url. BlazeDS and Red5 just aim to make it simpler by handling the translation for you making it possible to call the server-side functions transparently.
