What data rate are you sampling at?  Do the sensors show values when 
you move the mouse over them in the visualization pane?

Besides the installation instructions, the only documentation currently 
available is in the docs/TASKVisualizer.pdf document.  The back-end 
(mote side) of TASK is very similar to TinyDB, so the TinyDB 
documentation on the code structure applies here as well.

The results are stored in a postgres database.  The name of the 
database is specified in the file 
"tinyos-1.x/tools/java/net/tinyos/tinydb/tinydb.conf".  The table name 
in the database is specified when you start the query.  If you did not 
specify a name, the default is "queryn_results" where n is the query 
number.
