You need to look into using the Struts2 REST plugin or something similar. I've been quite happy with the Struts2 REST plugin myself, but I would bet Spring and other frameworks support something similar. Here are some URLs you might find helpful.

Documentation here: Struts2 Rest Plugin Documentation

Also, a good tutorial that got me started can be found here: Struts 2 REST Example
