The @DbLookup will return an array only if there are multiple values, so, you probably need to test the returned results to see if it is an array. There is no test in native JavaScript to determine if something is an array, so, it might be easier just to use @Subset. For example, the code below returns the proper value regardless if @Subset is used with an array or just a string:

var arr = new Array("one", "Two", "Three");
var str = new String("Test1");
var first = @Subset(arr, 1);
var firststr = @Subset(str,1);

 Sure there's a native way in JS to test is something is an array:
 
if (value instanceof Array) { 
<DoYourThing>
} 
 
Works great.
