CouchDB docs say it exposes a RESTful HTTP API, so you can access it via the usual R http mechanisms and use the rjson package to decode the return values. These kinds of unstructured DBs are tricky to write generic packages for since at least with an RDBMS you know what you get back will look a bit like a data frame.
