This snippet gives you a download link for the document:

Document document= (Document)cmisSession.getObject(docuementID);
String link = document.getContentUrl();

This is not same link you'll find the Alfresco dashboard, but it also lets the user download the document. Please note, that depending on the authentication setup the user has to authenticate again before the download starts.
