In short: it depends on what your passing in to the server. If you do regular POSTs and GETs, you can write Actions, just like always, there is zero difference. If you want to pass JSON or XML, then you'll have to add some code to handle that, either modifying the RP (or RP chain in 1.3), or else handle it in your Action. Or write a servlet. AJAX doesn't fundamentally change what you do on the server (in most cases... something like DWR is an exception, although under the covers, not really!).
Take a peek at the AjaxChat example mentioned on that Wiki page... this is a Struts app using plain AJAX (i.e., no library). It's just plain old Struts, no modifications or anything to it.
