Like this:

   layer.query(...)
   numresults = layer.getNumResults()
   for i in range(numresults):
       result = layer.getResult(i)
       ...

MapServer 4.2.4 is going to be released soon.  Has some major
fixes for Java mapscript, and also for querying.  It re-exposes
the resultcache so that users can access the spatial bounds of
a set of results

   layer.query(...)
   results = layer.resultcache
   bounds = results.bounds       # a mascript.rectObj

This release will be out within a week and i strongly recommend
that you upgrade when it is available.
