The only way I could replicate what you show is:

test=> \d hstore_test
     Table "public.hstore_test"
    Column   |  Type   | Modifiers
------------+---------+-----------
  id         | integer |
  hstore_fld | hstore  |



test=> insert into hstore_test values (1, hstore('www.ask.com', 
'{visits=>2.11221003268,pages=>4.22442006537,duration=>197980.836904}'));
INSERT 0 1


test=> select * from hstore_test ;
-[ RECORD 1 
]-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
id         | 1
hstore_fld | 
"www.ask.com"=>"{visits=>2.11221003268,pages=>4.22442006537,duration=>197980.836904}"


test=> select (each(hstore_fld)).key,(each(hstore_fld)).value from 
hstore_test ;
-[ RECORD 1 ]---------------------------------------------------------------
key   | www.ask.com
value | {visits=>2.11221003268,pages=>4.22442006537,duration=>197980.836904}

If that is indeed what you did then you as far as I can tell you do not 
have a nested hstore. Instead you have a key "www.ask.com" and a string 
value "{visits=>2.11221003268,pages=>4.22442006537,duration=>197980.836904}"

Where the => in the string value is decoration not functional. If you 
want nesting then you will need to use the array or JSON types.

Thanks Adrian,

I've figured out, have to apply a separate patch to query out of nested hstore.
