Is there a way to retrieve only documents from CouchDB where the number of revisions matches a certain criteria (e.g. > 1)?

You can build a map/reduce view keyed on the
_revfield. This field is currently an integer of the revision count, plus a checksum of the contents:297-0d7aa4331b85426b4ce3bbaa2131280f.This is subject to change at any time
The revision format has changed before and could change again. So to use this field is a little risky. However, I’ve used it myself I emitted a key of the checksum part, to have a view of all documents, shuffled.
