You can do it with Advanced Wildcard Mappings, without the REST plugin:

/profiles/user-test/orders/64/item/4

order id is 64

item id is 4

The action configuration needed for this example would be:

<action name="/profiles/{username}/orders/{order}/item/{item}" class="fooBarAction">
    <result>fooBar.jsp</result>
</action>
