try this if say your url is in field myField

your query to return the events
| rex field=myField "\/([^\/]+\/)*(?<servlet>[^\?]+)\?.*"
| table servlet

See regex at work here

If the field is not already extracted then try it generally with or without string field=_raw in below query:

your query to return the events
| rex field=_raw  "\/([^\/]+\/)*(?<servlet>[^\?]+)\?.*"
| table servlet
