Leveled is not a distributed key value store, but a backend for one (it is developed as a backend for Riak). In other words, if you want a *distributed* key value store, you need to integrate Leveled into your store implementation (as with LevelDB).
I did this today as an experiment with rclref, the example KV application coming with the Riak-Core-Lite project.
