Building up on the Ayende answer, here is a complete method, that does overcome the problem of 30 queries per session and indeed return all documents of the supplied class:

    public static List getAll(DocumentStore docDB) {
        return getAllFrom(0, new List(), docDB);
    }

    public static List getAllFrom(int startFrom, List list, DocumentStore docDB ) {
        var allUsers = list;

        using (var session = docDB.OpenSession())
        {
            int queryCount = 0;
            int start = startFrom;
            while (true)
            {
                var current = session.Query().Take(1024).Skip(start).ToList();
                queryCount += 1;
                if (current.Count == 0)
                    break;

                start += current.Count;
                allUsers.AddRange(current);

                if (queryCount >= 30)
                {
                    return getAllFrom(start, allUsers, docDB);
                }
            }
        }
        return allUsers;
    }

I hope it is not too hacky to do it like this.
