Background: I am writing an R view server for CouchDB.
To configure a CouchDB instance to use a view server, one can make an API call like so (as per earlier question):
curl -X PUT http://[localhost]/_config/query_servers/python '"/path/to/couchpy"'
In this case, the call to CouchDB on a local host is telling Couch the local path to the query server. However, is there any way to 'install' a query server on a remote CouchDB host through an API call to Couch?

That is currently not possible.
You could run an external on a different host, hooking it up with a proxy handler, global handler or db handler (see https://github.com/rnewson/couchdb-lucene for how to set that up)
