I do not believe CMIS being the best way to communicate with an alfresco repository, at least not for the most recent Alfresco versions, unless interoperability is a key value here (as in you want to be able to switch easily between content repositories).

If you are starting a new project from scratch, then Alfresco public REST API would be my very first suggestion check the docs for more informations. Note that it is only available starting from version 5.2.

Some times, you will even need to implement your custom webscripts (RESTful endpoints) for your custom logic, depending on what you are trying to achieve like in insuring transactional atomicity or implementing some complex logic ...
