I used MongoDB in the past too. Now, I'm using Elasticsearch as a document store. Aggregations are good, and you can do some very advanced stuff with it (geographic clustering, scan left, range and exact match, range buckets, histograms). Of course it comes with a set of limitations, but it might be worth your time to investigate (especially if you want to use it also for full text search).

I've actually become quite familiar with Elasticsearch since then, whereas I stopped using Mongo (that project died). ES is indeed very powerful.
