Here is a code example for you.Verified it working against Splunk 6 using Java SDK version 1.2 running from Eclipse , JRE 1.6.

public static void getJobResults(String sid){

    ServiceArgs connectionArgs = new ServiceArgs();
    connectionArgs.setHost("yourhost");
    connectionArgs.setUsername("someuser");
    connectionArgs.setPassword("somepass");
    connectionArgs.setPort(8089);
    Service splunkService = Service.connect(connectionArgs);

    JobCollection jobs = splunkService.getJobs();
    Job job = jobs.get(sid);

    while (!job.isDone()) {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(500);
        } catch (Exception e) {
        }
    }

    OutputMode outputMode = OutputMode.JSON;

    JobResultsArgs outputArgs = new JobResultsArgs();
    outputArgs.setOutputMode(outputMode);

    ResultsReader resultsReader = null;
    try {
        resultsReader = new ResultsReaderJson(job.getResults(outputArgs));
        HashMap<String, String> map;
        while ((map = resultsReader.getNextEvent()) != null) {
            for (String key : map.keySet())
                System.out.println("   " + key + " --> " + map.get(key));
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {/**handle exception**/}
    finally{
      try {
        resultsReader.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {/**handle exception**/}
    }

}
