Don't know if you using a framework, i use the OpenCMIS framework there you define whether to query all versions or not. If you do not, you will only get the latest versions of all documents.
This is also part of the CMIS specification (see http://docs.oasis-open.org/cmis/CMIS/v1.0/os/cmis-spec-v1.0.html#_Toc243905469). There you can find it by the optional query inputs.

I am using Chemistry and that param is sent over. What I'm seeing with Alfresco is that it is sending me the Private Working Copy as the latest version. I'm trying to get all the documents that are the latest version and are not the PWC. So far, this has been challenging to achieve.
