How to write a proxy operation

I have a REST interface to my backend server. I also have a REST
interface for the server side of my Web UI.
In some cases a REST interface operation in my UI server needs to simply
proxy for and pass-through to my backend server.

Are there any examples on how to do this sort of proxy operation?

my method looks something like this:

    @Path("/search")
    @GET
    @Produces({"application/xml","application/json"})
    public Response search(@QueryParam("format") String format,
@QueryParam("queryId") String queryId) throws JAXBException {

        Response response=null;

        ....
        return response;
    }

Thanks.
