Probably the manual could do with an update to reflect the fact that it 
only works for existing maps. Maybe the input parameter should be 
renamed to 'map' ?

Either do as Markus suggests (i.e. directly output the v.distance 
results to a file), or you can use db.select to extract the info you need:

db.select "select col1, col2, col3 from NameOfTable" 
output=YourDesiredOutputFile
