Hash tables aren't meant to be used as you are trying to use them; they are a very fast way to access the item/data directly rather than having to loop through lines/items/entries. If you need that kind of sequential storage, then sequence your item names:
hadd test n1 me
hadd test n2 you
hadd test n3 him
hadd test n4 her
$hget(test, $+(n,$1)) where $1 is the value you wish to "find"
