New Post: Use jQuery to return ListItemID based on metadata column RefID

SharePoint 2010

We're crawling a DB2 database using a BCS External Content Type.  There exists a SharePoint DocLib which contains a RefID metadata column that will match the ID of the crawled database row. 

I want to retreive the ListItemID from the DocLib, based on the RefID, and then use that to render a link to the document in the search results.

I'm new to jQuery, so:

 1. Can jQuery do something like this?
 2. Is there something in this project that will/can make this easier/better/faster/stronger?

Thanks in Advance,
