What would be a good mini-project to get intimate with JavaScript, as an advanced ‘introduction’ to the language? I want to actually code an application in JS, not hook up bits of it to enhance a web application.

Although not a project, watch the Douglas Crockford videos at YUI theater.
The biggest web based Javascript projects are going to deal with the DOM. Do some nifty stuff with JQuery. Make a table with rows that highlight when you hover. Make them update themselves through AJAX and JSON when you click on them.
If you’re really looking for something magical and usefull write a scrollable table with fixed headers and footers for IE8.
If you want to stay away from the WEB use the JDK 1.6 and run Javascript code in that. You could do TONS with that.
